DeadAmos Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) Hello Everyone, I‘m an International Events Management student from London and currently writing my dissertation on millennials’ expectations and motivations towards music festivals. If you are aged between 15 and 33, would you please do me a favour and fill out my questionnaire? It will take approximately 5 minutes of your time. I would really appreciate it. Link to my questionnaire: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/RXYCBQ3 Many thanks in advance. Natalia Guess us old folk have no expectations or motivation Edited October 13, 2014 by DeadAmos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.M.V Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Guess us old folk have no expectations or motivation And young folk have no motivation to do their own dissertation or get involved with the forum they expect to do their surveys for them.

Gnomicide Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 I've done it anyway, despite being too old. Some great options for motivation: "Music festivals are unique" - Which of the 387 festivals taking place next year will be unique? "I want to meet somebody and become intimate with that person" - getting laid always a priority when deciding to go to a festival. "I want to consume alcohol and drugs, because everyone does it" - Or I want to consume alcohol 'cos I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyhack Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) Bloomin eck if you're 34 you are too old so no chance for me. Old farts have hopes and expectations too so I filled in the survey anyway. Maybe as an event management student you need to recognise that life doesn't end in your mid thirties. How about a bit more of an inclusive approach and maybe you might be able to draw some conclusions from the differing responses of a wider age range Edited October 13, 2014 by grumpyhack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr gumby Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 That survey has really annoyed me. Daft really, but it has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Forgot the option that I go to festivals so I can wear my festival outfit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Guy Called Matt Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 There is an option for 34 and above.................. but I couldn't be bothered as after reading page one it was obvious to me that the person would not understand the replies they got anyway.

stuwilky Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I dislike being outside the target demographic. I mean, 35 and past it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natalia's Dissertation Posted October 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I’m very sorry that some of you feel offended about the age range. In the past a lot of research has been done on music festival motivations, however none have been done with the focus on Millennials. Therefore my dissertation focuses on Millennials only. Please don’t take it too personal. Thank you for your comments and the participation in my survey. I really appreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please dont take it too personal. Thank you for your comments and the participation in my survey. I really appreciate it! But if you exclude people of other ages from your research, how will you establish the motivations and expectations that are specific to the age range you are particularly interested in? Your survey may find that, for example, 70% of participants go because they like a certain type of music. The same survey conducted with all ages could establish the overall response to that question. Might be higher, lower, or the same. I'd suggest asking people of all ages to complete your survey, then look for areas where those in the age range you're interested in differ noticeably from the average.

ICGenie Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 There is an option for 34 and above.................. but I couldn't be bothered as after reading page one it was obvious to me that the person would not understand the replies they got anyway. There were only two pages so I whipped through it anyway. Even though I also am in the top age bracket... I’m very sorry that some of you feel offended about the age range.

Please don’t take it too personal. Thank you for your comments and the participation in my survey. I really appreciate it! May I suggest that if you only want "millennials" (that's a word?!) to take part you let people know before they click on the link. You might want to bear in mind that a huge amount of the festival demographic is from your top age bracket, especially for Glastonbury.

mr gumby Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 "millennials" (that's a word?!). I had to Google it, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Splodge Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 "millennials" (that's a word?!). I am guessing the op is after a job in the BBC, I regually listen to the news and have to google some words. I must be thick I suppose but what ever happened to plain English.

None of us are thick - it is just a word that nobody ever uses in normal life hence we all had to look it up. Even after looking it up I think the real definition is ""a silly word that tries to make the user look better than the reader that really means bugger all"" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravermum Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Done - with the assumed character of a young un only interested in drugs, sex and 'trendy' bands - that's what the youth care about, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
