Publication Restricted Access Development of risk management plan during a global pandemic: The case of Simplesmente ... Vinho2025-01-07 - Gudovic, Nikola; Braga, José Luís; Mota , Catarina; Borges, IsabelThe outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus pandemic has had a severe impact on people's ability to move around in space. The index of consumer confidence also suffered a serious setback during the health crisis. As the pandemic showed the first signs of giving way to increased vaccination, the planning and organisation of events became increasingly common. Nevertheless, new waves of the coronavirus, constant changes in government guidelines, World Health Organization recommendations and many other factors meant that event organisers had not just one, but several plans for running their events. From initial online and virtual experiences to hybrid models, that became more standard, to modified and redefined face-to-face events, the industry emerged with new creative impetus to reinvigorate itself. The main aim of this paper is to show how the process of planning, developing and running an event during the COVID-19 pandemic took place. The focus will be on the risk management plan and the measures taken to ensure the safety of all participants. Simplesmente Vinho is an event that could transform itself and defy the circumstances of the pandemic to the extent that it was able to have another successful year in 2021.Publication Open Access The Festivity in Honour of Our Lady of Antime in Fafe: An emerging tourist resource?2024-11-15 - Braga, José Luís; Mota, Catarina; Brás, Sandra; Borges, IsabelThe aim of this study was to analyse the motivations of the participants of the festivity in honour of Our Lady of Antime in Fafe (located in the north of Portugal) and provide an overview of the tourism opportunities and impacts associated with the event. To this end, the study analysed the main events on the programme for the 2024 edition of this religious festivity. According to the interviews and participant observations, the impact of the religious festivity in honour of Our Lady of Antime on the faithful who participated was evident. For this study, semi-structured face-to-face interviews and participant observations were conducted, and the former were recorded for subsequent content analysis and categorisation. Participant observation was conducted, focusing on the events that occurred during the religious festivity in honour of the Lady of Antime. The limitations of this study relate to the fact that this is a resource that has not yet been explored as a lever for religious tourism in the municipality, although it has received more media attention in recent years. After carrying out this study, it was possible to conclude that the religious festivity in honour of Our Lady of Antime is attracting more and more believers, and that this event has become a resource that is complementary to the basic tourist resources of the destination of Fafe.
