I too would suggest opening_hours.

Seasonal is related to the climate and the climate does vary from one year to the next and may be why the tag has a 'loose description'. An annual festival is not usually held for an entire climatic season, so I would not use it for them. Similar argument with intermittent with the added argument that it is not water related.

If the festival is held at some date expressible using the opening hours syntax, you could use the "open hours" tag[0] or add conditions to the "access" tags[1]. Though these tend to represent temporary accessibility, not temporary existence the way "intermittent" or "seasonal"[2] do. I'll also note that "seasonal" is already used for non-waterway features, and depending on how much one wishes to stretch the definition of "season" (which is already a pretty loose concept, even on OSM), it could maybe be used here too?

I've been adding some detail to a site that is used annually for a festival (not happening this year because of Covid-19), where there are paths in the same place year after year, but the paths are not there when the festival is not happening, although increased wear on the ground around them is probably visible much of the time.

Does it make sense to map such paths, perhaps borrowing the "intermittent" tag from waterway tagging?
