Festivus is a parody, a joke, created for a 1997 Seinfeld television skit... in the skit they talked about Festivus miracles... it's a phony made up name like that kwanza holiday nonsense... people like to make up their own imaginary holidays, it makes them feel different and special... LOL!!!

In that skit:

Frank Costanza's son, George (Jason Alexander), creates donation cards for a fake charity called The Festivus Fund. When his boss, Mr. Kruger (Daniel von Bargen), questions George about a $20,000 check he gave George to donate to the Festivus Fund as a corporate donation, George hastily concocts the excuse that he made up the name because he feared persecution for his beliefs—for not celebrating Christmas, but celebrating Festivus. Attempting to call his bluff, Kruger goes home with George to see Festivus in action.

Finally, at Frank's house in Queens, Jerry, Elaine, Kramer and George gather to celebrate Festivus. George brings Kruger to prove to him that Festivus is real.
