This book contributes to empirical research on festivals and presents a model of "event religion" for interpreting festival experiences from a religious studies perspective.  It features a comparison of three Hungarian case studies with different backgrounds - a mindfulness festival, a Catholic event, and a rock-metal music festival. The author suggests that examining event experiences along the four dimensions of spatiotemporality, symbols, community, and inward experience provides a conceptual framework for understanding contemporary alternative religious beliefs, behaviours, and experiences. She also utilises "religionesque" as an umbrella term for the various concepts that describe religion-related experiences and approaches. The book will be of interest to scholars of religion, sociology, anthropology, and others with a focus on events and festivals.
