A note about the word "festival" - I wouldn't consider Christmas to be a "festival". I'd call it a "holiday". A "festival" is more limited in area - like you might have a Christmas festival in a certain city where people put on a parade, light up a Christmas tree, and so on.

Perhaps (Christmas) extravaganza would suit your needs.
