Community events are organized activities or gatherings that bring together members of a specific community to engage in social, cultural, educational, or recreational experiences. These events promote interaction among individuals, foster a sense of belonging and inclusion, and often aim to strengthen community ties. Community events can range from festivals, fairs, and parades to workshops, sports tournaments, and seasonal celebrations.
