M FestivalSponsorship Pack

2018

Welcome toM Festival!M Festival takes place in St Albans hosted at The Marlborough Science Academy on Saturday 30th June 2018. Created and managed by a small and dedicated team of people, our festival raises money for the students of the school it is hosted at to buy new equipment such as computers, sports kits, science equipment and musical instruments.

We started 9 years ago now and the time has flown by! We continue to grow year on year and M Festival now attracts over 3000 people annually. We are recognised locally as a fantastic community event and are often compared to being just like a “mini-Glastonbury”!

For 2018 our festival will feature 2 outdoor stages of local live music with the addition of a giant LED outdoor screen for audience interactivity and live-camera feeds throughout the day. We will also have a host of food & drink options plus many activities for all the family.

We are mentioned annually by The Herts Advertiser and St Albans Review Newspapers, plus our event is covered LIVE by local radio.

In every area our festival is showing rapid growth. You’ve probably seen our website, and the statistics show a great rise in traffic over the years and we saw over 6000 people visit our website last year prior to the festival.

We need you!Our amazing team are already well-underway with the planning of our 2018 festival which once again we aim to make bigger and better than ever before, 2017 was a fantastic success raising over £16,000 for the school as well as 2 locally-selected charities.

Without the kindness of local businesses, our event just would not be possible and we could not have raised over £65,000 to date since M Festival began.

Please read on and take a look at this year’s sponsorship opportunities. Not only will you be supporting a great local community event where all monies raised goes back into a good cause, but it’s also a unique and effective way to promote your business.
