We invited all our friends to the party.

somera .

There was a big summer festival in the village.

.

She danced and sang throughout the whole party.

.

After the party everyone was tired but cheerful.

Festi is transitive and takes the occasion as its object, so you festas rather than celebrating at it. Festotago is a holiday or feast day, and is a different root worth knowing: a banquet, all food and long tables, where a is the whole occasion.

The word carries no religious weight of its own. Whether it is a village fair, a birthday or a national holiday, it is a and the context does the rest.
