Corporate Sponsorship
Sponsorships at The Mann Center offer visibility, promotion and access. The Center annually hosts the fabulous Philadelphia Orchestra and a wide variety of world-renowned pop, jazz, dance, rock and contemporary artists in a beautiful outdoor setting. This broad array of entertainment attracts audiences from all backgrounds, interests, and ages.
With an annual attendance of 150,000, The Mann Center provides an opportunity for branding and marketing to these multiple audiences, including sophisticated audiences with great purchasing power. The Mann’s beautiful park setting also provides a gracious, relaxed and casually elegant backdrop for dinner prior to fabulous evenings of entertainment, and thus a unique alternative to other summer entertainment options in the region.
Sponsorship opportunities range from season venue sponsorship to series sponsorships, evening show sponsorships, special events sponsorships, to education programs. Sponsorships are a perfect way to reach targeted audiences with benefits that can be tailored to match individual corporate needs.
Small to mid-size businesses are invited to join Corporate Partners to engage with other area companies in activities to support The Mann and open the door to The Mann experience.
