Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
Festivals are a significant aspect of cultural identity and socio-economic development, often reflecting the traditions, values, and aspirations of a community. In Jalingo Local Government Area (LGA) of Taraba State, festivals serve as platforms for showcasing cultural heritage, fostering unity, and stimulating local economies through tourism and commerce. However, the success of these festivals often hinges on effective planning and evaluation. Event evaluation reports, which provide detailed assessments of past festivals, play a pivotal role in shaping future events by offering insights into what worked, what failed, and areas requiring improvement (Adamu & Garba, 2024).
Evaluation reports encompass various elements such as attendee feedback, logistical challenges, financial performance, and the overall impact of the event. These reports not only guide decision-making but also foster accountability and transparency among stakeholders. In Jalingo LGA, where festivals are central to community life, the use of event evaluation reports can significantly enhance the planning and execution of future festivals. Despite their potential benefits, the adoption and utilization of such reports remain inconsistent, often due to limited resources, inadequate expertise, or a lack of awareness among event organizers.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
The recurring challenges in organizing festivals in Jalingo LGA, such as poor crowd management, logistical inefficiencies, and inadequate attendee satisfaction, highlight the need for systematic evaluation. While event evaluation reports can provide a roadmap for addressing these issues, their use is often overlooked or underutilized. This oversight can lead to repeated mistakes, reduced community participation, and missed opportunities for economic growth. The absence of a structured evaluation framework limits the ability of event planners to learn from past experiences and improve future festivals. This study seeks to explore the role of event evaluation reports in enhancing festival planning and execution in Jalingo LGA, emphasizing their significance in overcoming existing challenges.
