Help Us Share the Momentum - And Step Forward Together

This year, we invite you to be part of an exciting next chapter as we gather for the 71st Annual IFEA Convention & Expo, presented by atVenu, October 5–7, 2026, in Tucson, Arizona. For more than seven decades, IFEA has supported, connected, and championed festival and event professionals around the world—and now, we’re stepping forward together into the future of our industry. We’d love your help spreading the word and inviting others to join this powerful, inspiring experience.

SPREAD THE NEWS:

Your voice matters. The more people who hear about the IFEA Convention, the more ideas, connections, and inspiration we can create together. Share why you attend, what makes IFEA meaningful to you, and what excites you most about gathering with industry peers this October. A simple post, story, or share can spark curiosity and open the door for someone new to discover IFEA.

INVITE YOUR IDEAL CONNECTIONS:

Think about colleagues, peers, mentors, or emerging professionals in the festivals and events industry who would benefit from being part of this experience. Whether they’ve attended before or are brand new to IFEA, personally inviting them—through a tag, message, or post—can make all the difference. Help them see why this Convention is a place to learn, connect, and grow.

TAG, ENGAGE & CONNECT:

When posting about the Convention, tag friends, colleagues, and organizations you hope to connect with. Engage with others’ posts, start conversations, and share your excitement about coming together in Tucson. Every interaction helps build momentum and creates a vibrant online community leading up to the Convention.

THIS IS YOUR CONVENTION!

The IFEA Convention is shaped by its members—by the relationships formed, the ideas shared, and the voices that come together each year. By spreading the word, you’re helping strengthen our community and shaping the future of festivals and events.

Let’s step forward together and make the 71st Annual IFEA Convention & Expo an experience to remember.
