Due the increase in crime since [[All Might]]’s retirement, and the fact that [[U.A. High School]] is usually targeted by [[villains]], the [[Police Force]]'s [[Commissioner General]] came to visit U.A. himself to persuade pincipal [[Nezu]] to cancel the event. Nezu acknowledges he has a point, but refuses to do so, arguing that it is precisely in difficult times when students need the festival. Nezu managed to convince the Commissioner General so the festival can be held, assuring him that they have reinforced security and agree to suspend all activities and evacuate immediately if alarms sound, even if it is a false alarm.{{Ref|chap=173|ep=83}}
While the [[U.A. Sports Festival]] caters to the Hero Course, the School Festival is the domain of the other U.A. departments. Every course must pick a specific theme to display at the festival. Class 1-A spends an entire homeroom class trying to decide on what to do but they're unable to come to an agreement. [[Shota Aizawa]] warns his class if they don't pick a theme they will have to present a public lecture.

The school festival highlights everyone.

The School Festival is an event that the U.A. High School celebrates every year where students from all grades and courses plan things for everyone at school to have fun. There’re exhibits, performances, spectacles, food stands, etc. One of the best-known events is the Beauty Pageant.

Although the Festival is organized mainly for the students to blow off steam and have fun, it also offers the opportunity for many students to make themselves known, especially to those who are not from the hero course.

If the Sports Festival is where the hero course highlights, the School Festival is where the support course, general studies, and business course students have their chance to shine. It doesn't get the same level of attention as the Sport Festival, but for them, it's an event they look forward to.[1]

Nezu talks to the Commissioner General.

Due the increase in crime since All Might’s retirement, and the fact that U.A.

Nezu acknowledges he has a point, but refuses to do so, arguing that it is precisely in difficult times when students need the festival. Nezu managed to convince the Commissioner General so the festival can be held, assuring him that they have reinforced security and agree to suspend all activities and evacuate immediately if alarms sound, even if it is a false alarm.[4]

With the approval of the commission, every course must pick a specific theme to display at the festival. Class 1-A spends an entire homeroom class trying to decide on what to do but they're unable to come to an agreement. Shota Aizawa warns his class if they don't pick a theme they will have to present a public lecture.

Class 1-B decides to do a play as their theme and Mei Hatsume's class will present their inventions. There's also a beauty pageant that Nejire Hado plans on winning even though Bibimi Kenranzaki usually does.[4] Class 1-A practices in the weeks leading to the festival and Izuku is moved to the staging team even though he wants to dance for Eri.
