Advertising & Sponsorship
Besides advertising opportunities in our Playbill, we also offer Sponsorship Packages that provide your business with increased exposure in the community through multiple marketing opportunities for this coming Aurora Players theater season.
Becoming a Playbill advertiser and/or Sponsor is a great way to show your support for the arts in East Aurora and to reach our theater patrons — not only within East Aurora but from the surrounding towns as well. Our thousands of patrons include theater lovers from all of Erie County and beyond. Our audience members definitely read the Playbill and Program insert, and we believe the ads create a positive predisposition toward our advertisers and sponsors.
Plus, we now offer an electronic version of the Playbill for each show which includes live links to your business website. Not only can our theater patrons read the Playbill and show program on the device of their choice at their leisure, but they can also connect to your business directly via the links in your ad!
Besides promoting your business, a Playbill advertisement or sponsorship provides many other benefits to you and the community:
- It enhances your image by connecting with people when they are enjoying a theatrical experience that truly engages them.
- Many of our patrons explore the Village of East Aurora as part of their visit, often shopping and dining either before or after a performance. An advertisement or sponsorship will keep your organization top-of-mind.
- Your support helps to fund our youth programs, including the Annual Youth Scholarship and our ProjectSTAGE summer education and mentoring program.
- Through your support, Aurora Players productions attract visitors to East Aurora and enhance the image of our town’s charming, artistic, and creative heritage.
*At the higher sponsorship levels we will: include your organization’s name or logo on our website with a “special thanks” note; include your name or logo in our print advertising for a show or shows; and include mention of your organization in our publicity outreach efforts.
