The change is being made because city council officials hope to create a more multi-cultural atmosphere in keeping with the city's mix of ethnic groups.
Nonsense, this is a story from over ten years ago, hardily being changed now is it. The name of the event was chosen to incorporate all festivals happening a the same time,. Christmas was featured heavily in the festival and there was no mention of using the term to reduce offence to non-Christians. Did you not read the article? It was from The Catholic Herald, if anyone has cause to complain they would, but they didn't find any, did they?
