Large-scale festival attend tourists, bring economic benefits to an area, while taking away the local culture discuss the advantages and disadvantages.
On the one hand, there are some pros of large – scale festivals. First of all, the city where hold the festival will be upgraded to a higher level. In fact, more informations about that area will be appeared on social media. For example, photographers or journalists come and record videos about the festivals then post on the internet. In addition, the festivals also give chances to children to do more outdoor activities. Nowadays, children tend to spend their time at home more than going outside so it’s an opportunity for them to enjoy the holiday with their family and friends. For instance, Mid-Autumn festival is a great time for children to play and watch “múa Lân”.
