Unlike 60 second media spots, people will remember the festival andsponsoring businesses all year long.
In addition to being great family fun,Phoenix Fest is a great opportunity for your company to get its message out to the community and create positive associations, goodwill and name recognition in a festive, relaxed atmosphere. Because the festival is free to the public, we need your support to pay for the stage, seating, lighting and electrical work for the musicians who donate their performances to the festival.
