Sponsorship & Marketing Opportunities

Do you want to support this year’s Festival and have your brand alongside ours?

The 10th Annual Bermondsey Street Festival will take place on Saturday 17th September 2015 and this year we’re planning to make it even bigger and better than before, but we need your help, this is a community event run by volunteers, sponsors support the event with their sponsorship because primarily because they believe in the contribution that the event makes to the community and foremost that that it is beneficial to their business.

The festival is a unique annual event celebrating the rich and diverse community around this unique street in SE1 and is organised by the volunteers of the Bermondsey Street Festival Association.

Festival attractions include over 200 art & craft and food stalls, the infamous dog show, fashion show, maypole dancing and performance stages bringing a village fete vibe to the street. We provide free stalls to festival sponsors, local charities, schools and youth clubs and many of the stalls on the day raise money for great local causes.

This year’s festival will be the biggest and best yet with more activities, PR opportunities and stalls than ever before. To make it a success we are looking for local companies, organisations and groups to support the festival through sponsorship and through services in kind. It is a great way to become involved in your local community and raise your profile.

If you would like to be more targeted in your sponsorship, then why not fund one of our dance or community stages and have your banner across the top, or if your market area is health & well-being or perhaps child orientated, we can offer opportunities for your brand to be ever present within those themed areas of festival?

However you feel that your brand coexists alongside the values and ethos of Bermondsey Street Festival we would be pleased to explore those opportunities.

In 2015 The Audience Agency produced a detailed report on Festival attendees, this report can be downloaded from HERE.

We are 100% behind the festival.

We carry out our own marketing for the event in the form of social media, press articles and direct mail to or clients.

We really feel strongly about supporting this event.

Social Media.

Festival has three significant Social feeds and welcomes sponsors and stallholders to use those feeds for their own benefit.

Our Facebook Page promotes the individual events within Festival, such as Children’s Fancy dress parade and The Dog Show, participation in Festival scores a Like on your Page, and we share and promote your own posts.

Our Twitter Feed, with almost 2500 followers is very active leading up to and during Festival and, within reason, we can auto schedule tweets to your wording and include your photographs, and on the subject of photographs, our Instagram feed may be a positive addition to welcome and promote your involvement.
