The Ohio Festivals and Events Association represents the finest community festivals and events throughout the state.

We provide opportunities to exchange information and ideas with other festivals/event representatives and act as a clearinghouse for solutions to the common problems encountered in the festival & event business. Many of the same problems exist for both small and large festivals, and the same solutions can be adapted to the individual festival's size. The experience of festival members represent many years of mistakes and accomplishments.
