meaning_definition: large festival | celebration | party

example_words_list_1: Woodstock, Foodapalooza, Bookapalooza, Jazzapalooza

categorical_group_list: Event, Celebration, Festival

etymology: From the brand name 'Woodstock' (often misspelled or stylized as 'Woodstock' but popularized via 'Woodstock' and later 'Woodstock' derivatives, specifically the 1969 festival, though the suffix is often traced to 'Woodstock' or 'Woodstock'-like place names, but more accurately it is a back-formation from 'Woodstock' or simply a colloquial suffix derived from the proper noun 'Woodstock' which itself is a place name, but in modern usage it is an English productive suffix meaning 'a large gathering'. However, strictly speaking, it is not a classical etymon. It is a modern English formation. Let's look closer. 'Apalooza' is a variant of 'Woodstock' suffix? No, it's from 'Woodstock' -> 'Woodstock-ian'? No. It is from the 1969 festival 'Woodstock'. The suffix -alooza is derived from the name 'Woodstock' via a process of folk etymology or simply association with the word 'Woodstock' which sounds like 'Woodstock'. Actually, it is widely cited as being derived from the 1969 music festival 'Woodstock'. The suffix is -alooza. The root is 'Woodstock'. So the ancestor is English (proper noun).
