Sponsors sought for Taste of Annandale

Now that planning is underway for the 2022 Taste of Annandale, the top priority is securing sponsors.

The family-friendly community festival scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 1 in the center of Annandale, is likely to draw at least 6,000 people.

Sponsoring this event offers a great opportunity to highlight your business or organization, attract new customers, and publicize your support of a diverse community.

Plans call for food trucks, restaurants, a 5K race, a full line-up of live music and dance, a full schedule of children’s entertainment, a beer garden, law enforcement display, chili cook-off, pet contest, and dozens of vendors.

The Taste of Annandale is organized by the all-volunteer Annandale-Mason District Roundtable. Revenue generated by the event will support the Re-Imagining Community initiative in which local high school students use art and poetry to promote community engagement.

The Title Sponsor ($7,000) will have their name on large street banners, lawn signs, postcards, and all promotional material, will be featured in Annandale Today and social media posts, and much more.

During the event, the Title Sponsor will have a 20 x 20 foot-booth in a prime location, VIP reserved seating and parking, a banner on the stage, complimentary meals, and additional benefits.

Other sponsorship levels are Diamond ($5,000), Platinum ($2,500), Gold ($1,000), and Silver ($500).

Sponsorship applications are due in August, but the sooner you sign up, the more opportunities you’ll get to publicize your participation.
