[Y'all, this nerd would have shown up at this event no matter what - G'rhyf is here, somewhere, and so is he, and why would he not go on an adventure to a city he's never seen with someone he cares about? The cool cultural significance to the festival is just a plus.
So that does mean, yes, G'raha Tia attends both of the Theatre Performances, watching with rapt attention, nearly short of taking notes on the whole thing. His study of drama and plays is wholly within the realm of Allagan literature, so Johto and Kanto tradition is completely new to him, and the first time he's swept up in the artistry of the performance, the costumes, the props. The second time the story holds sway in his mind, and in a completely unromantic way, he wonders about the influence of the culture of this world on the structure and elements of the story.
(Prime dumbass here, he is.)
But there's time in between that! And holy cow, he wants to do everything, all the things. The traditional crafts are a wonder, and he is nearly insufferable trying to learn each and every craft as well as he can. For his sake, at least, his hands are quite deft, and he doesn't fumble terribly through them. Feel free to be annoyed with his fussing and skill, if you like, or maybe he could help you if you're struggling?
The food stalls are an entire different experience. The smells and sounds of each and every festival treat has him internally vibrating, and he soon finds himself with one of everything he can carry to share with his Pokemon - and you, if you're looking at him funny. Once one armload is gone between himself and his Pokemon friends, he goes back and gets a whole bunch of new stuff. It's not spoiling your dinner if you're sharing between yourself and at least three other beings!]
