Holiday would best complete the analogy since holidays can be described as festive the way pageants can be described as entertaining.

The word from the list which best completes the analogy is the following one:

Holiday.

Entertaining is an adjective used to describe a pageant, which is a noun.

Festive is also an adjective, and it can certainly be used to describe a holiday, which is also a noun.

Therefore, the analogy is complete both syntactically and semantically.
