Participants’ proposals of the International Orange Blossom Carnival for Improving

The purpose of the research is to determine what the proposals for the development of the carnival of the participants of the V. International Orange Flower Carnival are. The research was based on content analysis from qualitative research methods. Proposals for the development of the carnival participants were collected from 97 people using a questionnaire (07-09 April 2017) and the data were subjected to content analysis. More than half of the participants have participated in carnavals organized earlier. It has been found out that more than half of the information source about the carnival is “friends and family”. When the proposal for the development of the carnival of the participants is examined, it has been determined that the most important emphasis is on the quality of the organization. In addition, "promotional activities in local and national borders" and “promotion and informing activities in big cities”, “organizing carnival in the first organized place”, “improving environment and land-scape”, "making carnival food and beverage and souvenir prices more reasonable" suggestions have been also found. Findings were presented as; (1) suggestions for the carnival organizer, (2) suggestions for carnaval promotion, (3) suggestions for the carnaval where the carnival was organized and suggestions for the superstructure, and (4) suggestions for prices. The sampling is limited to participating in the Adana V. Orange Blossom Carnival. The participants of the Orange Flower Carnival held in Adana show the originality of the study of what their views on the development of the carnival have not been investigated before
