By supporting the International Festival of Arts & Ideas, you invest in a vibrant cultural ecosystem that drives economic growth in New Haven. From 2021-2024, our programs attracted over 100,000 in person attendees, generating an estimated $12,310,000 in local economic activity through tourism, dining, and retail. For three decades, we’ve been dedicated to bringing bold and inspiring performances to our great city. Our events create over 150 jobs each year, and create opportunities for local businesses, from independent artists to hospitality partners.
