Denton’s Day of the Dead Festival provides a number of opportunities for businesses and individuals interested in sponsoring the event. Get your brand in front of over 10,000 fun-loving festival goers.
Sponsorship of an event of this nature is a vital part of its success. Denton’s DOD is a non-profit organization, and the proceeds are not only used to cover the festival’s expenses, but a portion is also donated to local charities.
Donations may be in the form of a financial or in-kind contribution. In-kind contribution may include building materials, rental equipment, art and craft supplies, candy, or any other items needed to manage the festival. The festival is a popular event and a wonderful way to show your support of the community. Below is a list of sponsorship categories and the benefits available with each one:
