A summer fete or fair is a very English tradition
A fair, sometimes spelt 'fayre', is a gathering of people for a variety of entertainment or commercial activities. It is normally a temporary event with scheduled times lasting from an afternoon to several weeks. There are usually fun activities and games for the family, food stalls and tents to buy food from, and usually some kind of interesting entertainment act for people to watch.
A carnival is similar, except that it usually involves a parade. A parade is a procession of people dressed up in special outfits and possibly riding on dressed up vehicles, which are the main attraction of the event.
"A local summer festival" This is referring to a festival / party / fayre / gathering of people with music, food, drinks and activities, that is 'local' / smewhere that is close to you.
A 'fete' is another term that is used as well as Fayre. usually a lot smaller than a festival a fete or fayre is usually a small and local event held in villages and towns.
example: "I'm going to the annual village fete tonight"
"Did you hear! the fayre is in town at the football pitches".
The most common expression will be "Local Summer Festival" especially if the holiday is only celebrated in your city or its immediate surroundings. It can also be referred to as a holiday. An example of a local festival would be the festival of Nowruz celebrated in the Tehrangeles district of Los Angeles, as that is a holiday celebrated by Persians all around the world and Tehrangeles is a Persian neighborhood within the bigger city of Los Angeles.
For something that is celebrated on a bigger scale (like a Prefecture level celebration) you would need to call it according to the administrative division such as Province, Region, or State. An example of this is Pioneer Day in the state of Utah; though it is NOT a federal holiday, it is a celebration of the arrival of the Mormon pioneers into the state of Utah on 24 July 1847, and is a statewide holiday.
