Summer Concert Series
Sponsorship and Nonprofit Opportunities for 2024
Sponsorship for Basalt's Summer Concert Series fosters name recognition with your generous support of local nonprofits and our community. The result is high exposure and positive marketing for your business. There are a total of 10 concerts running from July 19 - August 28, 2024.
Nonprofits may benefit from operating a beverage and/or concession booth at a show. Nonprofits may apply individually or partner with a potential sponsor. Nonprofits must apply for a liquor license if running the beverage booth and have at least one volunteer server who is TIPS certified.
This presentation includes more information about sponsorship levels, nonprofit participation, and additional support opportunities.
If you are interested in participating as a sponsor or nonprofit partner please click the corresponding application link to get started!
Deadline to apply is February 5, 2024.
If you need assistance with the applications or have general questions, please reach out to Alec Sloan in the Planning Department.
