As a result of factor analysis on service quality of festival program, the factors are reduced to 4 factors, and there were significant difference between the groups in variables except factor 2(physical factor) after the t-test on reservation pattern and when comparing the differences of overall average, the average of internet or telephone(cable) reservation group was much higher than on-site reservation group. In addition, when combined the results of regression analysis, which used dummy variable, it indicated that it was better to maximize the usage of internet or telephone(cable) reservation as on-site reservation had negative effect on overall satisfaction and behavioral intentions for revisiting or recommending the festival. Therefore, it is important to increase the reservation through internet or telephone to forecast the demand correctly and to prepare it efficiently.
