- what happens on the calendar if a festival happens on the same day as a holiday I've created?

I've had my first village festival fall on the same day as New Year's Eve. In the calendar, the square for that day showed the thumbnail for New Year's Eve and, in one of the lower corners, a small icon signifying the festival (I think it's a purple circle with a flag?) In actual gameplay, both the festival and the holiday went on as they should. They didn't clash in any way.
