In developed countries，many traditional festivals have degenerated and been set in danger of extinction in the process of modernization. However，some of them have survived and even prospered through tourism. Tourism anthropology，affected by its concentration on cases in developing countries，ha s been neglecting such amplification of festivals. Why have such festivals survived and thrived? The aim of the article is to clarify the reason of such amplification of festivals through reinvestigation into the history of festivals. based on the economic theory of K.Polany and R.Caillois's theory of ‘the sacred' .Traditional Float Festivals (Hikiyama Matsuri) in Japan wiIl be mainly referred to as cases of such amplification of festivals. And the investigation will also clarify the significance of the study of festivals for analyzing modem societies.
