editThis page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (Kolkata Christmas Festival (KCF) is an extension of the traditional Christmas celebration on Park Street, celebrated by not only Christians, but by all communities. Park Street has been the home of Christmas revelry in Kolkata for many decades, from the times when Kolkata was still a British colonial city. It is a very popular annual festival attended by people from all over Kolkata and the surrounding regions, and even from other places. It has a large following on Facebook as well. I am writing this as a fan of the festival.) --Anushtup (talk) 07:54, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
