A show sponsorship is a great way to support Big Top, receive unique promotional opportunities and enjoy a one-of-a-kind show experience!

A show sponsorship can be used to promote your business, honor a loved one, recognize an achievement, or celebrate a reunion of family or friends. Sponsorships help offset the artist fees and performance costs and give unique marketing opportunities to business. Your support is important to Big Top Chautauqua's ability to bring diverse performers to the tent stage. Sponsorship benefits include VIP tickets, recognition in print pieces and online, and special perks like autographed concert posters and entertaining opportunities.

Sponsor Benefits

• COMPLIMENTARY SEATS: Sponsors enjoy their show from 10 front row seats or 10 ‘VIP’ box seats with beverage service from Mt Ashwabay. Sponsors also have first right to purchase surrounding seats for their guests.
• ​PRINT RECOGNITION: Sponsors are recognized in the Season Program and Season Brochure with the sponsored performance. The Program is a keepsake piece distributed through regional newspapers and direct mail (April deadline). The Brochure is available at local and regional locations.
• TENT RECOGNITION: Sponsors are recognized live from the stage, on banners displayed all season long at the tent and on our pre-show and intermission slideshows. Other promotional opportunities at the tent can be made available.
• WEB PRESENCE: Sponsors are highlighted on www.bigtop.org and to over 23,000 customers through e-blasts with a click-through logo or link. Use the opportunity to drive customers to your website or specific event!
