nothing like a weeklong event though.
I haven't been to those other festivals you mentioned but I'm guessing they're much bigger affairs than this.

Saratoga does stuff like that and more for both the Whitney & Travers, but than again, I'm pretty sure they are a racing atmosphere unlike any other.
It seems like the whole city of Hot Springs goes to the track the week of the Arkansas Derby. They promote that week really well.
