0I would use "Because" instead of "Since," and I think you mean the length of the festival (3 days or 2 days), not its longevity (this is the 85th year it's been put on).0-

0Hi guys,02br

00Thanks for your responses.02br

00What I am trying to say is that local support is vital if the festival is to carry on going in the future. In this case, is what I have written OK (if I swap since for because)?02br

0I think you'll still find people confused about whether you mean how many days it will last or how long into the future (years) it will continue. 02br

00Can you say simply "the future success" instead of "the longevity"0-

0That sounds like a good idea, thanks Grammar Geek :-).0-
