Local Town On Course To Have Random Festival On Every Week
SEVERAL mediums sized towns are under investigation at the behest of their own residents after they became concerned and suspicious over the abundance of festivals taking place on a week by week basis.
“What the fuck is the Annual Mushroom Cooking Festival? I’ve lived here 50 years and I’ve never heard of it. Are you just allowed make up festivals now? In that case I want a ‘John Has Free Parking Festival’,” confirmed local hater of how the traffic is cat in town on the weekends, John D’Arcy.
What once was restricted to just a trad and literary festivals in individual towns and villages has expanded to 18.4 festivals for every resident in a typical Irish town.
While it is common for Irish towns to have an ‘Insert Old Hollywood Celebrity Who Passed Through The Village Once’ Festival, the prevalence now of Hot Dog Eating & Philosophy festivals has the public concerned the bubble is about to burst.
“I’m all for culture but how in the name of God do we have a Bengali Film Festival, and not all branches and genres film mind you, only documentaries from Bengal,” said one perplexed resident, who believes the increase festivals has to be some sort of money laundering scam.
“You can mock and make fun of it all you like but I’m quite looking forward to participating in the Mongolian art portraiture worlshop to celebrate the 9th Jebtsundamba Khutughtu as part of the Irish Leaf Blowing festival,” shared one enthusiastic local who admittedly can’t wrap their head around the festival’s theme and contents.
