What is festival in BSL?

Hello Emma, well done for asking the question in BSL! A useful resource for finding BSL signs is YouGlish - you can search for lots of different languages though, so make sure your settings are for BSL. It has over 100 examples of the sign "festival":

The sign for "festival" can be seen here at 0:07:

Tip for YouTube - if you go to the settings on the bottom right, you can slow it right down so you can catch all the signs.

All the best.
