Why should you sponsor?

Second Saturdays Live is a great opportunity for sponsors to reach members of Brevard and the surrounding communities. Live music events draw from a wide demographic, and we have tailored each event to draw in new people. Since these are family friendly events, we will have attendees in all age groups and varied economic backgrounds, from college students attending the local university to fun-loving retirees.  

Pilot Cove Amphitheater is a magical place, and you want to be a part of the memories people make there! These attendees will be interested in high quality live music, craft beer, good food from local vendors, outdoor activites, family-friendly businesses and activities, and of course, beautiful scenery. In return for their investment in our concert series, sponsors receive marketing and interactive exposure to our concert patrons for the season.

Bands will be sharing content from our promotions, and that is another great means of brand introduction to new audiences. We have taken a lot of time and intention in developing our sponsorship packages, focusing on what means will be best implemented in the community where we are working: Brevard/Transylvania County and Hendersonville/Henderson County.

Your sponsorship not only assists our efforts, it also nourishes the community.
