FEATSAZ News:

The Metro Tucson Tourism Master Plan showcases how festivals and events collectively impact Tucson and Southern Arizona tourism. Take a moment to download the plan at the link above and review the Culture section, beginning on page 48, which includes Events & Festivals.

We are extremely proud of Tucson’s prestigious designation as a 2017 WORLD FESTIVALS AND EVENT CITY, bestowed by the International Festivals and Events Association (IFEA)!
We are grateful to IFEA for this significant recognition for Tucson and also for choosing Tucson for the three years (2017, 2016, 2015) as the location of the international IFEA Annual Conference and Retreat.
FEATSAZ also thanks Visit Tucson, the City of Tucson, Pima County, those who contributed to the development of the successful entry to IFEA, and to the many Tucson area festival industry professionals, suppliers, vendors, and volunteers for creating the diverse and wonderful festivals and special events that make Tucson special.

IFEA World Festival & Event City Award

The IFEA World Festival & Event City Award, was designed and created as a way for the global festivals and events industry to openly encourage, support, learn from and recognize positive local environments for festivals and events worldwide.
