The Oregon Festival and Events Association

The Oregon Festivals & Events Association is a non profit membership based organization.   OFEA is challenged to provide services to members of the organization, and to the public seeking the special experiences that OFEA members offer through festivals & events.

Festivals & Events provide the vital tool in the success of communities and their economies.  OFEA works to improve the understanding of these positive impacts of such activities as communities come together in celebration, reflection and to share their unique attributes.  Improving community, embracing traditions and creating new economic impacts are just some of the important outcomes of a community festival or event.

The OFEA is all about the local festivals and events in Oregon. Our main efforts are to promote Oregon Festivals and Events, increase quality, value and sustainability of community events and further the education of Oregon's Festival and Event producers.

The OFEA produces the annual Oregon Events Calendar. 90,000 copies are distributed throughout Oregon at local Chambers of Commerce, Visitor Centers, State of Oregon Welcome Centers and Regional Tourism Associations.

In addition to the printed calendar events are listed on two top web sites – www.oregonfestivals.org and www.traveloregon.com.  Members events are featured with expanded information.
