Priole Danna Festival
The Priole Danna festival was a celebration of parades and music in Gryle City on the planet Lamuir IV in Tapani Sector's Freeworlds Region. Held annually, it began 2,367 BBY. In 23 BBY, the master of ceremonies was Diva Arroquitas. In 22 BBY, the Festival Director was Eizzam Stachrini and it began on 6:12.

One of the most popular attractions of the festival was the Anapolla Musical Splash. During the time of the New Republic, there was a hundred-thousand-being mass sighting of a Silentium at a Priole Danna festival.

Mardi Gras
Mardi Gras is an important celebration in most of Europe, and in many parts of Latin America and the Caribbean. The traditional colors of Mardi Gras are purple (justice), green (faith) and gold (power). The accepted story behind the original selection of these colors originates from 1872 when the Grand Duke Alexis Romanoff of Russia visited New Orleans. It is said that the Grand Duke came to the city in pursuit of an actress named Lydia Thompson. During his stay, he was given the honor of selecting the official Mardi Gras colors by the Krewe of Rex...thus, did these colors also become the colors of the House of Romanoff.
