History:
I have the feeling most festivals used to be religious or have a connection to a solar or lunar calender (some religions have a connect to lunar or solar events), but in more modern times festivals have come up to just have fun or to share ideas. This is a very uneducated guess. -- Banana04131 21:31, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
I think feast should be merged here. That page, a stub, seems to refer to festivals. What do you guys think? Comments? Gflores Talk 02:50, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
I couldn't follow this sentence:
Function
Festivals, of many types, serve to meet specific cock faces needs and penis heads, as well as to provide entertainment. [emphasis added] 04:13, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
At present the definition reads: "A festival is an event, usually and ordinarily staged by a local community, which centers on and celebrates some unique aspect of that community." This is the same definition as in Wikitionary, but is narrower than is used for most of the rest of the article. There is a broader definition at http://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/festival but I do not know the proper way of putting this in the article.

Could someone edit out the American line about "For a list of festivals in the USA, please see List of festivals in the United States." There is a 'list of' section below and English wikipedia is not American wikipedia. Tnx. -- Zangvill ( talk) 13:44, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
Shouldn't Fête merge here, in appropriate section? PPEMES ( talk) 10:19, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
