Festivals around the world - B1
Every country has its own festivals. Some festivals are very old, and some are modern. For example, in Spain, people celebrate La Tomatina, where people throw tomatoes at each other. In India, people celebrate Holi, the festival of colours.
Festivals are important for culture and tradition. They help people meet, have fun, and remember their history. Many festivals also attract tourists, which helps local businesses.
People usually prepare food, wear traditional clothes, and participate in games or dances. Festivals can be noisy, colourful, and exciting. Experiencing a festival in another country is a great way to learn about a new culture.
