Talking about festivals, festivals have various meanings. Festivals are celebrations or special events held to celebrate or commemorate something, such as culture, religion, music, art, or certain events.
Usually, festivals involve various activities, performances, exhibitions, special foods, and many participants who come together to celebrate something in a festive and joyful way.
Steemit Engagement Challenge enters Season 12 Week 6, so let's go to this topic about festivals in your country.
What are the big festivals in your country, and how do you celebrate them? (Mention some rituals if you follow).
Independence Day is the day when the Indonesian nation is recognized by the world, and in fact, every 17th of August our country simultaneously celebrates it very lively, starting from holding a large festival as thanksgiving for the struggle of the soldiers who previously fought to defend this country.
The festivals held include exhibitions and competitions on August 17, which usually involve lots of games, which are participated in by children, housewives and even fathers who don't want to miss out on taking part in this activity.
Do you want to go on holiday during this festive period, or want to stay in your country and celebrate the festival with your family? Give reasons behind your choice.
If you have to travel, of course it will be very impossible, especially since Independence Day is a holiday in our country, and many companies even close to commemorate Indonesia's independence every 17th of August every year.
Share with us if you have any memorable moments related to this festival.
If we talk about moments together at festivals, maybe only when I was still in middle class, that year I went with my father, to see the red and white flag lowering ceremony in the afternoon.
In fact, the next day I was given permission to go with my brother to see an extraordinary festival in the city of Lhokseumawe. I really enjoyed the moment that day, but now it feels like it will never be the same.
That's my entry for this weekly contest, I also want to invite @ikwal, @dikimon2 and also my sis @sailawana and sis @dederanggayoni to take part in the SEC S12 W6 contest this time.
Keep the spirit up for the steemians.
Good luck to all steemians
Kind Regards @ismuhadiadi
