It is not permissible for the Muslims

Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:

“It is not permissible for the Muslims to attend the festivals of the mushrikeen, according to the consensus of the scholars whose words carry weight.
The fuqaha’ who follow the four schools of thought have stated this clearly in their books.”
Al-Bayhaqi narrated with a saheeh isnaad from ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab Radiyallahu Anhu that he said:

“Do not enter upon the mushrikeen in their churches on the day of their festival, for divine wrath is descending upon them.” And ‘Umar Radiyallahu Anhu also said:
“Avoid the enemies of Allaah on their festivals.”

(Ahkaam Ahl al-Dhimmah, 1/723-724).
