- Festival Cities provides a sustained, reflective and historically grounded survey of the ways in which festivalization, based around programmes of regularly-occurring non-ambulatory events, has now become embedded in urban life and city planning. Drawing on evidence gathered from field research and extensive review of professional, academic and more eclectic popular cultural sources, it brings together detailed case studies with synoptic overview of the processes and actors that have driven festival proliferation. As such, its 324 pages provide a groundbreaking analysis of the subtle relationships between continuity and change that are manifested in existing and emerging festival practices.
