The people here don' t need any excuse to celebrate,so there' s often something going on, but there isn't much that should affectyour travelling plans
One thing to note is the Canaries JazzFestival, usually around July, and pretty much always with a better line-upthan anything we seem to be able to manage in the UK these daysWOMAD also pays a visit here, around November, for a great free World of Music and Dance Festival

What does the underlined sentence mean, especially "for" in the sentence?

Thanks

Something called "WOMAD" is scheduled to come "here" to put on a festival. The festival is free.

WOMAD is an acronym and the clue to its meaning is in the same sentence.
"WOMAD also pays a visit here, around November, for a free World Of Music And Dance Festival".
The slightly different correct version and other information is found in the link supplied by charliedeut.

not a teacher
