Festivals are social gatherings for the purpose of thanksgiving and celebration. They are often ritualistic and convene in the same place each year. They are spaces of ephemeral and liminal 'time out of time', enjoyment and difference, infused with conviviality and cheerfulness (Ruting & Li, 2006; Sharpe, 2008:219). Observance of and participation in festivals... is an increasingly significant aspect of the contemporary tourist experience (Picard & Robinson, 2006:1), and has recently become an important and growing niche in the industry (Ruting & Li, 2006:1). This has resulted in the coining of the term tourism (Picard & Robinson, 2006) which is often placed under the banner of interest tourism (Van Zyl, 2005a; Kakaza, 2000:6). O'Sullivan and Jackson (2002:325, 326) describe festival as a catch-all term to include special events and festivals of any size or organisational persuasion. This, notes Visser (2007), makes festival a complex area of study
