Non-Baha'i can participate in all things Baha'i except the 19 Day Feast which is not al holiday but more akin to tending to local community business.
"Baha’is around the world will celebrate four days of festivities, gifts, parties, service projects and charitable humanitarian work during the Baha’i holidays called Ayyam-i-Ha. That Persian phrase designates the Baha’i *Intercalary Days*, describing the four or five days in the annual Baha’i calendar that don’t fall into any given month. Baha’is[3] set aside those days for joyous celebrations and preparation for the Baha’i fast that always follows Ayyam-i-Ha."

Non bahai's can attend feasts. They cannot participate in certain aspects of a feast such as discussion or donation towards the funds as thats seen as a holy contribution and also for obvious security reasons, but they can participate in most aspects
