As a more or less live capture (i.e. literal) of 後の祭り I suggest offering "bygone festival/matsuri," and as a decently equivalent idiom "water under the bridge".

Representation over -- okay, at least alongside -- mere (and often insidious) paraphrase...

Keep up the great work!

Or also "a festival gone by."
