| The New Year celebrations go on for longer, meaning that Scots tend to think of the period as a single time of celebration and festivity. |
| It is planned over a period of 6 months, and culminates in weekend of celebration and splendid festivity. |
| Carnival, an important festival that precedes Lent, is celebrated with much festivity. |
| I laughed and told them to come on back anytime and join in the festivities. |
| On arrival we booked into the hotel and then the festivities began with our annual pre-dive get-together. |
| I remember joining in the singing and general festivities of the Jubilee holiday. |
