A Country Affair presents exciting opportunities for sponsors to be associated with a high quality brand of family events held at prestigious locations.



There is scope for high visibility branding on both our marketing material in the lead up to each event, and at the shows themselves. A Country Affair attracts up to 40,000 visitors per show: there are opportunities for sponsors to reach large numbers several times a year by associating with all our events, or to target an audience linked with one specific location.

The aim of A Country Affair is threefold:

1. to provide quality entertainment for families at affordable prices
   
2. to encourage and foster participation by amateur performers at the shows and to help preserve popular and traditional entertainment
   
3. to help conserve and protect the historic locations where the shows are held for future generations.

By sponsoring A Country Affair, organizations and individuals can help us to meet these objectives and will assist in the growth and the development of the shows themselves.

Sponsorship Opportunities

We are offering sponsorship packages in several forms:

Sponsorship of the entire A Country Affair brand in year one, comprising the shows at Hampton Court Palace, Morden Hall Park, Clapham Common and Bournemouth.

This includes substantial branding throughout the show sites, and on hoarding along perimeter fencing facing busy roads; branding on all marketing and publicity materials, including a post office leaflet drop to up to 500,000, mainly ABC1 homes in the catchment area of each show, and regular verbal credits over public address systems throughout each event.

Our shows have received substantial coverage in the media, including television, radio and newspapers and we advertise extensively in local newspapers, glossy magazines and on radio. Facilities, including exhibitors’ space and a hospitality area can be arranged for a sponsor wishing to promote a product or activity at the shows.

Sponsorship of individual A Country Affair shows.

This includes all of the opportunities detailed above offered at a single event. Other opportunities for all shows include branding on tickets, on the stages where core activities are taking place, on banners around the show, on infrastructure (eg entrances, toilets, bins etc.), and more. We are happy to discuss other possibilities with sponsors to ensure that exposure is maximized throughout the build up to the show and during the event itself.

Sponsorship of individual elements at all the shows or at single events.

This could, for example be, The Countryside Arena, The Village Stage, The Cookery Theatre, The International Food Marquee or specific children’s activities like the Circus Workshop, The Village Playground or The Steam Train.

At this stage all the above opportunities are available, though this will of course change if we secure a sponsor for all four shows.

We are very sensitive to the needs of sponsors and we will do all that we can to make the arrangement work for them as well as for A Country Affair.

In view of the many options available we invite to sponsors to contact us so that we can devise a package to suit your needs. We will happy to negotiate a financial arrangement based on the opportunities required.

We hope that the short video presented here will have answered some of your questions and given you an impression of A Country Affair.
