Impacts, Residents’ Perceptions, Event, Tourism, Festival Internacional de Jazz de LouléAbstract
The aim of this paper is to analyse the residents’ perceptions about the impacts caused by the cultural event Festival International de Jazz de Loulé and identify the factors that influence these perceptions. In order to accomplish the objective of the research, a resident survey was undertaken in the city of Loulé in 2013 with the application of 146 valid questionnaires. The results show that residents consider that the event has more positive impacts than negatives, considering that this festival contributes to the tourism development of the town, integrated in all the events held in the municipality, contributing to community cohesion with mainly social and cultural benefits. The results also show that the perceptions of the residents of the impacts varies according to certain demographic characteristics (age, gender, qualifications), the degree of knowledge of the event, the interaction with the visitors and the situation towards the job.
