It is festive season on the islands all year round as the islanders truly know how to celebrate life but some of the special times to be on the islands are during the festivals/ special events like the annual Moorea Marathon in February, that attracts plenty of participants.
Christianity is the main religion of the islands: a majority (54%) belong to various Protestant churches and a large minority (30%) are Roman Catholic. Slightly more than 50% of French Polynesia's population belongs to the Maói Protestant Church, the largest Protestant denomination. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints had 21,884 members as of 2012.There were about 3,000 Jehovah's Witnesses in Tahiti as of 2014.
