Whenever the current situation has subsided to the point where we are no longer asked to engage in social distancing, perhaps local governments should make it a priority to allow a bunch of festivals and other large public events to take place. This will create work for the service industry which will help bootstrap their sector back into motion and also give the public a sense of normalcy so they'll start going out again.

Terrible idea. Unless there's herd immunity, this will just restart the epidemic anew, this time in the people who managed to dodge the virus the first time. Social distancing can be lifted in those who recovered from the virus though, maybe they'll be able to attend.
