The final paper that looks at niche tourism product development is in the area of fringe festivals. It is the first study to examine the importance of atmospherics on the image of festivals, and adds to the limited research on fringe festivals. Its key theoretical contribution is in the development of a model to examine atmospheric stimuli at fringe festivals and, its exploration of independent fringe festival theatres’ ability to produce an appropriate atmosphere for its visitors. The findings substantiate Kim and Chalip’s (2004) appeal for event organisers to pay particular attention to the ways in which the atmosphere of their events is constructed, and are a response to Milman’s (2001) suggestion that more research is needed on how atmosphere should be developed for different niche market segments. 4.3 Niche Tourist Profiling Table 2: Key themes, methods and contributions to knowledge of publications in the area of Niche Tourist Profiling Research theme Research methodological approach and methods Contribution to knowledge
Niche Tourism Profiling Papers 1, 3 and 4 Pragmatism Mixed Methods Key Informant Interviews Consumer/Winery Surveys Paper 10 Pragmatism Theoretical Case Studies Paper 11 Pragmatism Mixed Methods Theoretical Yoga tourism Operator Surveys One of the first attempts at profiling the wine tourist, their needs and expectations. Recognition that it is the experience that is fundamental – not the wine. Awareness of wine tourism as a form of consumer behaviour. Application of needsbased motivational theories to the wine tourism consumer Insight into the profile, preferences and motivation of yoga tourists. The earlier works that have been included in this critical appraisal (papers 1, 3, 4 and 10) establish, through the use of extensive surveys, baseline data to inform and create insights into the important niche wine tourism market. My involvement in wine tourism research, at a very early stage in the development of this area, is significant as it reflects some of the first published work examining premium Australian wine regions. In Mitchell and Hall’s paper examining the state of play of current wine tourism research, reference is made to the work presented here as an integral contribution to ‘the pioneering research projects in wine tourism’ (Mitchell and Hall, 2006, p.307) and the subsequent body of literature that has emerged.
