Heritage festivals are interactive spaces imbued with stimuli to evoke feelings of nostalgia. This qualitative study draws on the narratives of attendees to the Art Deco Festival in Napier, New Zealand, to examine the nostalgia experience. Through in-depth interviews and thematic analysis of festival visitors, event organisers, and local businesses, the findings reveal four distinct types of nostalgia within the festival context: historical, personal, collective, and virtual. These different types of festival nostalgia and their characteristics can be grouped into four-by-two classification: place-based and time-based nostalgia, object-based and experience-based nostalgia, individual-based and collective-based nostalgia, and direct-based and indirect-based nostalgia. This classification contributes to a more nuanced understanding of the conceptualisation and operationalisation of nostalgia which have important implications for researchers and festival management of nostalgic destinations.

怀旧节日体验的多维性：装饰艺术节案例

遗产节是充满刺激的互动空间，可以唤起怀旧之情。这项定性研究借鉴了新西兰纳皮尔装饰艺术节参与者的叙述，以考察怀旧体验。通过对节日参观者、活动组织者和当地企业的深入访谈和主题分析，调查结果揭示了节日背景下四种不同类型的怀旧情绪：历史的、个人的、集体的和虚拟的。这些不同类型的节日怀旧及其特征可以分为四两类：基于地点和基于时间的怀旧、基于对象和基于体验的怀旧、基于个人和集体的怀旧以及基于直接的怀旧。基于和间接的怀旧。这种分类有助于对怀旧的概念化和操作化有更细致的理解，这对怀旧目的地的研究人员和节日管理具有重要意义。
