allowed everyone to be attuned to this historic celebration

Explanation:
Hello,

You can be a bit more literal here. Perhaps I wouldn't say "live, though, in English

An example:

http://staticandwine.blogspot.com/2009/05/live-to-beat-of-ci...

vivre au rythme de cette fête = to live to the beat of = to be attuned to (harmonious with/centered on)

I hope this helps.
