Applied were the variables such as characteristics of statistics and behavior of the participants during the weekdays and weekends.Using factor analysis seven important factors were identified from 27 items; friendliness, harmonization, playfulness, extra-ordinariness, culture, nativeness and novelty. Authors found that the level of perception was varying between the visitors of each site and between the difference in perception by population statistics/tourism behavior. Allegedly one could enhance festivals participation if one considers motivating factors proved here carefully.
