The following is an incomplete list of festivals in North America, with links to separate lists by country and region where applicable. This list includes festivals of diverse types, including regional festivals, commerce festivals, fairs, food festivals, arts festivals, religious festivals, folk festivals, and recurring festivals on holidays. This list overlaps with list of film festivals in North America, while list of music festivals in North America redirects here, with music festivals denoted with (music) for countries where there is not a dedicated music section. A truncated list of ongoing music festivals may be found at list of current music festivals in North America.
There are several festival types unique to North America. Pow wows have traditionally brought together North American populations,[1] while Rocky Mountain Rendezvous events brought together Native Americans and fur traders as early as 1825.[2] Ancient fiestas and holidays such as Day of the Dead are still celebrated in Central America and Mexico, while unique carnivals such as Mardi Gras have developed along the Gulf of Mexico. Other unique North American festivals include state fairs, which may feature attractions such as rodeos or trade fairs in the United States. The first was the New York State Fair, founded in 1841. Similar exhibitions are held in Canada, such as the Calgary Stampede, which debuted in 1886.
