International Festivals and Events Association

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The International Festivals and Events Association (IFEA) is a not-for-profit association for producers, suppliers and managers of festivals and events, which range from small county and municipal events to large-scale parades that can have attendances in the hundreds of thousands. It has members in about 38 countries on 5 continents.

The IFEA was founded in 1955, and adopted its current name in the 1980s. It is based in Boise, Idaho, U.S.A.

The IFEA puts on a yearly international convention and expo for its members. The most recent convention and expo took place in Ottawa, Canada in September 2006. The IFEA also offers several educational courses which can lead to the professional designation of Certified Festival and Events Executive (CFEE).
