Social Impact Of Fairs And Festivals

What my fair means to my community was the question, but the answer I concluded was most intriguing. For some the fair is something to come and connect with old friends, colleagues or relatives perhaps. For others the fair is to bring their animals to compete, or see who has the best showmanship and the best quality of animal. For the other individuals of the community they come to our fair because they want to take part in showing their business or vending. That is one of the great parts of our fair because usually the products are handmade and unique to their own kind. For some they come for the art, the music, the rides, the food and the list goes on. Overall the most meaningful about my fair is that the community not only comes together,

As I mentioned earlier, I saw family groups entering the fair. These family groups consisted of generational members. To see older adults with the young, showed me that educating, sharing beliefs, and traditions still run deep in family groups. I enjoyed counting the children and see that the fair-goers were excited about this year’s fair. At the end of the fair, working in the parking lot, I saw lots of tired

The social and cultural processes are also significantly impacted. Tourism has helped develop and keep up the unique culture of the island, it has helped revive artistic traditions, and has provided an economic justification for preserving them. But tourism has also led to importantly behavioural impacts, for example; nude sunbathing by tourist is widely disliked by the locals, as well as that lack of respect is shown by tourists in scared places such as temples. Another negative impact is the social development of Bali. There are constant conflicts between local villagers and developers who want the land for hotels and attractions like golf courses. These social impacts have led to a loss in culture and heritage. Another significant impact is the turning of Balinese culture into a commodity. The major influx of tourists has plagued Bali’s culture. Dances, ceremonies and arts and crafts are all now adapted to tourists timetables and tastes, and are mass produced to reduce cost. Also because more people are choosing to work in the tourism industry, this has meant that fewer are available doe traditional ceremonies and communal tasks, placing more pressure on traditional community organisations.

In my opinion, what the Minnesota State Fair means to people is tradition. Families go to the state fair every year to have that one last adventure with their kids before school starts up again. Its a place where people know they can find something that everyone in their family will enjoy eating because of all the many options available. Also, parents know that with all the many games, rides, and venues available that everyone will find something they can enjoy as a family for one true last memory until next summer.

The Iowa State Fair is a big part of the culture of Iowa and has been for centuries. 1854 was the first year of the Iowa State Fair and ever since then it has been a can-not-miss date on many Iowans’ calendars. Every year the fair is held for ten days in the middle of August. Many counties in Iowa hold county fairs, but the Iowa State Fair is the biggest fair of them all. People from all around the state and even throughout the country come here to show off their accomplishments, listen to live music, camp, and have fun at the Thrill Park. Just last year, over a million people visited the fair throughout the ten days of activities. Many kids that I go to school with prepare for this week all year round. They raise and take care of different animals such as pigs and cows and show them at their local county fair and then if they get selected as one of the top participants, they get to go on to show their animal at the Iowa State Fair. You can also go to the state fair for creating art, projects, and photography. They have all the outstanding artwork of the kids on display for everyone to see. The talent that the kids have is just remarkable. The Iowa State fair is a great place to see the culture and even the history of

Straight ahead large groups of people walk around with their families, laughing, holding hands, and eating great smelling food. As I walk into the festival I look ahead to the grass field. Under shaded trees young couples sit and enjoy cotton candy and hot dogs. Children are running around enjoying the warm fall sun. Walking past, a young boy is playing tag with his sister around a large oak tree, loudly giggling and

The fair is using things such as; Facebook, Snapchat and Twitter to try grab the attention of today’s youth. Just on Facebook alone the have implemented such things as the medallion hunt clues, a game where people need to identify stands to get free treats and even a photography challenge, where there are daily rewards where they can win anything from free food coupons to demolition or racing tickets. These things really try to help grab the attention of those kids who seem

Ultra Music Festival (UMF) is a yearly open air electronic music celebration that happens in March in the city of Miami, Florida, United States (DURAN, 2013).In this report I have analysed about the ultra-Miami festival event in USA and what is behind the success of the event.
