Vpliv pandemije COVID-19 na festivalsko izkušnjo

Vuksanović, Andrej (avtor), Kozorog, Miha (mentor)

Pandemija COVID-19 je leta 2020 sprožila temeljite spremembe v družbenem življenju na različnih področjih človekovega bivanja. Z namenom čim hitrejše in čim učinkovitejše zajezitve bolezni in njenih vplivov ter vzdrževanja javnega zdravja so vlade uvedle različne ukrepe, ki so usmerjali medsebojno druženje ljudi. Ti ukrepi so spodbujali minimalno druženje, kar je posledično pomenilo začasno ukinitev vseh organiziranih oblik druženja. Protikoronski ukrepi so tako pomenili tudi prekinitev kakršnihkoli popularnoglasbenih festivalov, ki so jim druženje in tesni (tudi fizični) medosebni stiki inherentni. Ti festivali pa imajo zaradi svoje vloge pri konstruiranju posameznikove identitete (predvsem med mladimi) in krepljenja medsebojnih vezi v sodobni zahodni družbi vidno družbeno vlogo. S protikoronskimi ukrepi je bila ta vloga torej prekinjena oziroma popačena. Leta 2022 pa je večina držav ukinila protikoronske ukrepe in omogočila prvo izvedbo festivalov po izbruhu pandemije koronavirusa. Pričujoče magistrsko delo obravnava morebitne posledice, ki jih je na festivalski izkušnji, tj. na doživljanju festivala pri udeležencih, pustila pandemija. Teoretsko je festivalska izkušnja v magistrskem delu utemeljena na Durkheimovem konceptu kolektivne živahnosti, na fenomenologiji ritualiziranega telesa, medsebojne bližine in medosebnih interakcij ter na antropološkem raziskovanju množic. Na podlagi etnografije, ustvarjene na treh popularnoglasbenih festivalih – Gora Rocka, Metaldays in Sziget, so izpostavljene ugotovitve, ki kažejo na določeno povezavo med vplivi pandemije COVID-19 (oziroma protikoronskimi ukrepi) in festivalsko izkušnjo.

In 2020 the COVID-19 pandemic triggered profound changes in social life across various domains of human existence. With the aim of swiftly and effectively containing the disease and its impacts, as well as maintaining public health, governments implemented various measures that limited human interactions. These measures encouraged minimal socializing, which consequently meant the temporary suspension of all organized forms of social gatherings. Anti-coronavirus measures also led to the interruption of any popular music festivals, where socializing and close (even physical) interpersonal contacts are inherent. However, these festivals play a significant societal role due to their contribution to individual identity construction (especially among the youth) and the reinforcement of interpersonal bonds in contemporary Western society.With the anti-coronavirus measures in place, this role was either disrupted or distorted. In 2022, most countries lifted anti-coronavirus measures and allowed for the first post-pandemic coronavirus outbreak execution of festivals. This master's thesis examines the potential consequences that the pandemic left on the festival experience, specifically on participants' perceptions of the festival. The theoretical foundation of the festival experience in this master's thesis is based on Durkheim's concept of collective effervescence, the phenomenology of ritualized bodies, proximity, interpersonal interactions, and anthropological research on crowds. Drawing from ethnography conducted at three popular music festivals – Gora Rocka, Metaldays, and Sziget – the study highlights findings that indicate a certain connection between the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic (or anti-coronavirus measures) and the festival experience.
