Immifest : ImmiFest – Hello and welcome to ImmiFest! In this blog, I will look at research and provide an easy to understand guide for event managers. The point is to give insight into various studies that have been done that support the development of festivals celebrating the culture of immigrant communities in Australia. Over the next few posts, I will look at research from various disciplines such as psychology, economics and event studies to get a deeper understanding of cultural festivals, why people attend these festivals, the importance of broadening cultural understanding and protecting intangible cultural heritage. So if you are an event manager who is interested in organising cultural festivals for immigrant communities and you don’t have the patience to read long, boring and difficult research papers then this blog is for you!
