Abstract This exploratory study examined the accessibility of research conferences to undergraduate student presenters in Macao (China) by utilizing the usability theory. Twenty-two higher education institutions (HEIs) students who presented at undergraduate conferences were interviewed to gain an understanding of the perceived usability of the conferences’ services and facilities, and their impacts on their overall experiences and intention to participate in future conferences. The results revealed that student presenters considered the following as useable and accessible facilities and services: having the opportunity to rehearse for presentation and visit the conference venue before the conference, the lunch break, and the flat venue seating arrangement. Tea breaks, signage, and some equipment used for presentation were considered non-usable and inaccessible. The perceived usability was associated with the student presenters’ judgment of the supportiveness of services and facilities about their abilities, limitations, and tasks. Despite several perceived non-usable features, interviewees acquired good experiences and would consider presenting at another conference with the adoption of some anticipation strategies. This study offers a new perspective to approach accessible conferences for undergraduate student presenters. It advocated the importance of understanding users’ perceptions on usability and the personal–environment relationships. Practical suggestions were also offered.

Abstract Crises have impacted how both businesses and consumers have allowed opportunities for new processes to emerge. However, there has been a void of literature on novel strategies in the event industry, mainly through service-dominant (S-D) logic. Therefore, this study explores event business professionals’ perceptions of S-D logic innovative strategies due to the impacts of global crises. Based on the results of in-depth interviews of event business professionals, six overarching themes emerged: (1) core product innovation; (2) service environment innovation; (3) technology innovation; (4) process innovation; (5) marketing innovation; and (6) socialization innovation. Theoretical and managerial implications are provided to academia on event research and on incorporating these innovative strategies into event management in the future.

Abstract Travel motivation is a leading research interest and of value to various tourism sectors, including festivals and events. Most national arts festivals in South Africa compete for the same market, and it is crucial to understand what motivates visitors to attend such events. Utilizing a multi-year destination-based data collection technique at Woordfees produced a combined sample size of 1005 responses. Four phases of analysis: a descriptive analysis to profile the respondents; an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) on motives for attending the festival; a cluster analysis based on the motives for attending the festival; and an analysis of significant differences between the market segments was performed. Two motivation factors were identified: festival attributes and attraction and escape, socialization, and enjoyment. Three market segments are identified: arts, ambivalent, and hedonic festival seekers. Arts and ambivalent festival seekers are more motivated by festival attributes and attraction (pull motive), while the hedonic festival seeker is more motivated by escape, socialization, and enjoyment (push motive). Motivation-based segmentation provides an excellent alternative perspective based on an Afrikaans literary festival. Although similar segments are expected to be present at other national arts festivals, more personalization could be implemented to satisfy market needs based on motivation to attend.
