This timely and innovative book offers an introduction to a range of creative methods, providing both empirical and conceptual guidance.

Based upon existing empirical work and richly illustrated throughout, each chapter carefully examines creative methodology and/or methods within an event and festival context. International case studies are incorporated throughout, providing real-world examples of how these methods have been used in practice, as well as highlighting potential ethical issues. Each chapter includes a concise ‘how to’ set of guidelines to help researchers and students employ creative methods in their own work, as well as a series of ‘think points’ to help develop ethical practices. Chapters illustrate new pathways or lessons learned from research during the pandemic and other challenging landscapes.

This significant volume offers festival and event researchers and students a different approach to their work that could result in better research, reaching hidden and marginalised groups.
