Festival is one of Kirby's Copy Abilities, debuting in Kirby Star Allies.
General Information
Festival allows Kirby and his friends to perform a dance that obliterates all enemies on screen and causes them to drop Point Stars. While it cannot turn undefeated bosses and midbosses into Point Stars, however, it can still damage them significantly. Like Crash, Festival is a single-use ability. The Festival ability only appears rarely, as only one enemy, Donpuff, and one boss, Yggy Woods, grant it. During the dance, all enemies on screen freeze in place.

- The logo that appears behind Kirby at the end of the dance is the same one of the 25th anniversary logo.
- Festival is the first limited-use Copy Ability to be introduced since Magic in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, a 14 year gap.
- The hat Festival Kirby wears may be inspired by the dancers in the Rio Carnival, a celebration in Brazil.
