Sponsorship Opportunities

 
NEW! Whirligig Festival now has 501(c)3 status!
 
 

Why be a Sponsor for the Whirligig Festival?

 

  • How often does your business get promoted to 22,000 people at a time?
  • Get noticed
  • Keep the festival free and open to all Wilson residents
  • Support your community
Both you, and the Wilson community, will find value, publicity, exposure, branding, and a new opportunity
to share our "home-town experience" with a
growing audience.
 

"From cotton candy to guitars, local arts and crafts, swords and cannons and corndogs and music... there's something for everyone at the Whirligig Festival."

 

The festival is the one time per year that you can reach almost everyone in Wilson. A booth or activity at the festival reaches more people, faster & easier.  

 

 

YOUR SPONSORSHIP MATTERS for two important reasons:

 

You gain unique and massive exposure for your products and services.
 
The community benefits because you make Wilson a better place to live.
