What is the oldest festival in the world?
The oldest festival in the world is a topic of much discussion. While it's difficult to pinpoint an exact answer due to the vast number of cultural celebrations across the globe, some festivals stand out as particularly ancient. For instance, the Venice International Film Festival, founded in 1932, is known as the oldest film festival. However, when considering traditional festivals with deeper cultural roots, celebrations like the Lantern Festival in China or Halloween, originating from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, have been observed for centuries or even millennia.
