The Ottawa Folk Festival truly does have something for everyone - and that includes you. Over 10,000 people pass through our gates each year, providing an excellent opportunity for forward-thinking corporations, organizations and small businesses to showcase themselves in an environment of good will, postive energy and community participation.

Do you want your message to reach the broadest possible spectrum of people? The Ottawa Folk Festival is where you need to be! It's here that CEOs and hippies happily co-exist, where everyone from babies to seniors grooves to music from every corner of the world, where downtown hipsters boogie beside suburban soccer moms. Whatever your target demographic, you'll find them at the Ottawa Folk Festival.

Now in its 17th year, the Ottawa Folk Festival is one of Ottawa's most beloved and highly anticipated summer events. Set amidst the natural beauty of Britannia Beach, the festival is a three-day celebration of music, dance, visual arts and community featuring an eclectic mix of musical performances on two evening and five daytime stages, plus participatory music workshops, wellness activities, beer gardens, artisan and craft vendors, special children's and family performances and much, much more.

Bringing together icons such as Kris Kristofferson, Emmylou Harris and John Prine with upstarts like Feist, Rufus Wainwright and Broken Social Scene, the Ottawa Folk Festival presents musical giants alongside rising stars, old favourites, new discoveries, and the best and the brightest from Ottawa's own rich and varied music scene. We are family-friendly, community-focused, culturally diverse and committed to sustainability and eco-friendly initiatives. And we're also a whole lotta fun.

The Ottawa Folk Festival offers a range of sponsorship levels and recognition options, including:

We also offer generous complimentary ticket allotments, access to parties and special events, opportunites for special on-site promotion... and more!

We're also always more than happy to work with you to tailor the perfect package to best meet your needs and get your message out.
