In addition to grant funding and income from our ticketed gigs and merchandising, our Sponsors are vital to the presence of the Festival on the streets of Marsden each year.

Sponsorship opportunities

The festival offers sponsorship opportunities at modest cost across a range of festival events, including venues, concerts and other events. We are also keen to discuss more generous levels of sponsorship for the festival as a whole or for the festival leaflet or T-shirt.

What's In It For Me?

Our sponsors are largely local, attracted by the wish to support an important event in the community calendar. They are aware too that by sponsoring the festival they are making themselves known to a local audience: 21% of our audiences travel 5 miles or less to the festival; 50%, 10 miles or less; 67%, 25 miles or less.* Independent surveys carried out for Kirklees show a high proportion of return visitors, high satisfaction with the festival and general agreement that the festival is good for Marsden.** The festival is clearly a good thing to be associated with!
