I'm not familiar with mint but on my systems (openSUSE) festival is started by 
a 
systemd service file.  

I've included mine below and it should work on mint but I make no guarantees.

Copy the below into a file called festival.service
On openSUSE service files are in /usr/lib/systemd/system.  Your mileage may 
vary.

Enable with: sudo systemctl enable festival
Start with: sudo systemctl start festival.
