No one does al haesh in the park in English. The answer shouldn't even be allowed. It's also still not accepting "have a barbecue".
"Every Independence Day they have a BBQ in the park." They are doing is less grammatical. If its a habit once a year, the simple present forms, "they do/they have/they make/they host" are appropriate.
Also why isn't Al Ha esh translated as barbecue? It is definitely not a word for which there is no English equivalent. And Independence Day barbecues were not invented by Israelis!!!

It's really annoying that these messages go back 5 years and have not been corrected which shows us that duolingo isn't interested in feedback or correcting their mistakes.
Not in English. That would mean something different like constructing a barbecue rather than using a barbecue to cook food which is "have a barbecue".
