City Events Sponsorship
Cambridge's mix of public, private, community and education sectors all have an important role to play in supporting the city's vibrant arts and cultural activity throughout the year, helping us reach new and existing communities from Cherry Hinton to Arbury.
We're committed to building meaningful partnerships with organisations who share our ambition and believe in the power of arts and culture to bring people together. Sponsoring one of our many exciting events is a fantastic way to show your organisation's commitment to Cambridge, raise your profile, connect with a diverse and engaged audience and support us to create memorable events and experiences in the places, venues and communities we love.
With a range of sponsorship opportunities available, we can offer packages to suit all organisations, objectives and budgets.
