Festivello

Festivello puts your website in holiday mode without touching your theme.

Pick a holiday, switch it on, and your site gets a temporary seasonal look: a colour overlay across the header, body, footer and font, floating icons drifting over the page, an animated background, and an optional banner message above the header. Switch it off and everything returns to your theme’s own styling instantly. Your theme files are never modified.

Nine holidays are included and ready to use:

• Christmas

• Halloween

• Valentine’s Day

• New Year

• Easter

• Thanksgiving

• Canada Day

• Fourth of July

• Black Friday

Every one of them is fully editable. Change the dates, the colours, the icons, the animation and the banner text on any holiday, as often as you like. There is no limit on how many holidays you use across the year, no trial period, and no expiry.

Features

• Nine preset holidays, all editable

• Temporary colour overlay for header, body, footer and font

• Up to five floating icons per holiday, from an emoji library or raster images selected from your Media Library

• Five background animations: falling snow, floating hearts, falling leaves, confetti, and a fireworks glow

• Low, medium and high animation intensity

• Optional banner message pinned above your header

• Optional automatic scheduling by date range, including ranges that wrap past December 31

• One holiday runs at a time, so seasons never collide

• Respects prefers-reduced-motion: animations are skipped for visitors who ask for reduced motion

Built to stay fast

Holiday CSS and JavaScript load only while a holiday is actually active. Nothing is enqueued on your site the rest of the year.

Privacy

Festivello does not collect any data, does not phone home, and does not contact any external server. Everything it does happens on your own site.

Festivello Pro

Everything described above is part of this free plugin, with no limits, no quotas and no expiry, and it stays that way.

cloud/wp-festivello/, for people who want holidays of their own rather than the nine built in here. It adds:

• Unlimited custom holidays of your own

• Your own name, start date and end date for each one

• Your own header, body, footer and font colours per holiday

• Your own Media Library images, or emoji from the library

• Any of the five background animations, at any intensity

• Add-on updates and new Pro features delivered through your dashboard

• Direct email support from the people who build the plugin

• And many more

It is useful for anniversaries, product launches, sales and seasonal campaigns that are specific to your business. Pro is an add-on: this plugin stays installed and active, and everything you have already set up keeps working exactly as it does now.
