Support the Festival



If you would like to discuss how to add your support to the forthcoming Festival, please contact us on info@perthfestival.co.uk

The support of trusts and foundations is vital to the continued development and delivery of our Festival as a local charity.

Funding helps us develop a wide range of shows each year and bring new arts experiences to as many people as possible. It helps us to engage high quality artists while keeping our ticket prices as accessible as we can to audiences.

Grant funding also enables us to organise several free events, particularly for children and young people. We have long-standing relationships with local schools, Perth & Kinross Music Instrumental Service and Children's Classic Concerts which provide both performance and participation opportunities for young people of all ages. Some funders choose to support support these bespoke education and outreach events during the Festival or to fund a specific concert in our programme.

Our 2026 funders and sponsors are listed below.

Corporate Sponsorship

As a Scottish charity, the Festival has enjoyed vibrant partnerships with businesses for 55 years. This support helps us to bring the arts to over 14,000 people each year.  It keeps us at the leading edge of the arts in Perth and helps us leave a legacy of community benefit, especially for local young people.

In return, we work hard to ensure that the support of local businesses is proudly promoted and that our partners enjoy a special Festival experience.

The Festival offers a range of opportunities for companies to join us as Corporate Partners. These include exclusive opportunities to sponsor a Festival event, as well as tiered packages that may suit a smaller business or provide a taster of a Festival partnership.

All packages offer excellent opportunities for clients and staff to enjoy the Festival atmosphere within the stunning Festival venues such as Perth Concert Hall and Perth Theatre.

 

Event Sponsorship Packages

This package allows a sponsor to choose an event from the Festival programme to be branded as “sponsored by…” with the use of the company logo and accompanied by a range of benefits, including complimentary tickets and acknowledgement online on our website and event programme. 

Our newest corporate partnership is with Lindsays, solicitors and estate agents, based in Perth and across Scotland. Lindsays are sponsors of our ArTay visual art exhibition, which attracts thousands of visitors and art enthusiasts from across the country and showcases the work of over 100 artists in Scotland. 

Our 2027 Festival will run from Thursday 20 to Sunday 30 May and will offer opportunities for corporate sponsorship that will promote your brand and support to Festival audiences and the chance to experience the Festival with colleagues or clients. 

To request a copy of our Corporate Sponsorship 2027 Packages, please contact Helen Band, Festival Director, on info@perthfestival.co.uk or 07739 836994.
