MFest
MFest is a multi-arts festival of Muslim knowledge and creativity. We bring together artists, activists, thinkers, organisations and collectives to celebrate the collective power of diverse Muslim communities, connect with our roots and imagine thriving futures.

Maslaha took over MFest in 2020, launching virtually in 2021 in partnership with the British Library as a community-generated season of events and workshops. Through MFest, we reclaim and recontextualise the stories and histories that shape Muslim communities, working with partners to explore archives while also celebrating the embodied knowledge that sustains us.
We commission Muslim artists across many different artforms and at varying stages of their careers, from theatre and comics, film and digital projects, books and publications to installations and public art. Our programming prioritises marginalised voices within Muslim communities, ensuring that MFest is inclusive of all identities and backgrounds.
