Swedish term or phrase: Fläkt
Årets show är en blandning av välkända hits och schlagers med fart, fläkt och hög igenkänningsfaktor.

It certainly ain't a fan or a blower, any suggestions?

bustle, as in "hustle and bustle"


Explanation:
"Hustle and bustle" is a set phrase which I believe conveys the idea of "fart och fläkt", or a busy place, like a busy city street. Could be used here, if you don't get any better ideas! Good luck!
