The Festivals listed in the Old Testament are central to God's Plan for all Humanity.
In fact, they were instituted by Jesus Christ Himself, as the God of the Old Testament (does that shock you?!)

Watch these series of videos for just a hint of the meaning to be explored through the Festivals of God.
