Regarding Sponsorship...

Without sponsors there would be no Erin Feis. About a third of our budget comes from sponsorship funds. While Erin Feis benefits from sponsors, it is also true that our sponsors receive not only the satisfaction of knowing that they helped put on the largest downstate Irish festival in Illinois but they also receive a number of benefits as a sponsor.

There are seven levels of sponsorship at Erin Feis. The amount of exposure a sponsor receives depends on the sponsorship level. At the high end a sponsor can have a tent named after them, have their logo appear in our TV ads or mentioned in our radio commercials, have their logo in our four ads in the Journal Star, have their logo on this web site and in all our flyers and program booklets (over 18,000 pieces). They also receive a number of daily passes.

In the middle range sponsors can share tent naming rights, have their logo in our four ads in the Journal Star, have their logo on this website and in all our flyers and program booklets (over 18,000 pieces). They also receive a number of daily passes.

For those that do not have a big advertising budget but would like to do something to ensure the success of Erin Feis, we have the Doors of Dublin Sponsorship and Erin Feis T-Shirt Sponsorship. Doors of Dublin Sponsors have their company logo on one of the 16 doors that greet everyone that enters the ground by the main gate. For the $250 sponsorship fee they also have their logo on this web site and in all our flyers and program booklets (over 18,000 pieces). They also receive a number of daily passes. A T-Shirt Sponsors cost $75 and is limited to 14. These sponsors get their logo on the official Erin Feis shirt, on this website and they receive a free shirt and a couple daily passes.

If you are interested in being a Sponsor at some level please contact us immediately. Because of time limitations on advertising copy contracts must be secured by July 3. For more information about being a Sponsor contact John Martin or Bill Roeder.
