Abstract
Festivals are now well-established city positioning tools and destination branding instruments. Often developed within parameters of identity, lifestyle, and image management, branding through festivals can also be successfully achieved through the involvement of history and politics of memory. This article explores the New France Festival that stages the “Quebec's New France” brand as the renewal of Frenchness. By looking at the staging of the festival in the space of the city, performances, and references to local identities, it is argued that primarily targeting local residents for regional tourism can efficiently be done through the use of history. In addition to raising the city's cultural profile and visibility, encouraging international repositioning, and fostering economic development, festivals that celebrate history create a resonance with people, which stimulates a sense of belonging, and can contribute to a strong branding process.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
