Customs, festivals and celebrations are these words all the same in meaning or are there some differences?

While these words are related, they do have different meanings.

Customs refer to the practices or behaviors that are commonly observed within a particular culture or society. Customs can include things like traditional clothing, greetings, or social norms.

Festivals, on the other hand, are events or occasions that are celebrated by a community or society. Festivals often have religious or cultural significance and may involve special food, music, or activities.

Celebrations are similar to festivals in that they involve marking a special occasion or event, but celebrations can refer to a wider range of events, including personal milestones like birthdays or weddings. Celebrations can also be more informal and may not have the same cultural or religious significance as festivals.
