Trying to sum up.
May 27, 2015 at 16:17 comment added ExOttoyuhr Choster, I think you're right -- I was thinking of Christmas pageants more than anything else. I agree, there probably isn't a really good English translation for this...
May 26, 2015 at 23:17 comment added choster I'm not sure that there is a cultural equivalent for the end of the academic year in the US, but the "Christmas pageant" used to be a staple of elementary schools.
May 26, 2015 at 22:46 comment added Kristina Lopez "Pageant" is used for beauty contests now but in the past, schools and churches used "pageant" for a performing program.

May 26, 2015 at 21:11 comment added ExOttoyuhr I thought I understood the meaning of "school pageant" when I posted this, but looking up the definition of "pageant" leaves me feeling less confident... Maybe the meaning I gave is obsolescent?
May 26, 2015 at 21:08 comment added moino Thank you, according to what I see on google this expression seems to bear a kind of "miss awards" meaning. Would it make sense for an official yearly event?
