The Victorian Interfaith Festival is a grassroots initiative that brings together Victoria's diverse faith communities to foster understanding, collaboration, and positive social impact. Each year, the Festival is hosted in a different Local Government Area (LGA), highlighting the unique faith communities and contributions within that region.

The Festival addresses pressing community issues, including family violence prevention, anti-racism, child safety, gambling harm, and environmental sustainability, while promoting awareness and dialogue on faith, multifaith, and interfaith matters.
