FOUNDING SPONSORS
Opportunity
Sponsorship applications are now open, with multiple opportunities to become part of Canada’s first permanent Renaissance faire village.
Support the launch of a permanent Renaissance faire village while putting your brand in front of guests who value live entertainment, craftsmanship, and immersive experiences.
Sponsors will receive visibility during our inaugural season while also securing permanent recognition as early supporters of a project designed to grow for years to come!
Why Sponsor Outland Gate Faire?
Sponsoring the faire is about more than a single event day. It’s a chance to become part of a permanent village that will expand through ongoing events, new builds, and returning guests.
For the right sponsor, this will offer you a combination of:
- founding-stage recognition that continues beyond the inaugural event.
- local and regional brand visibility.
- association with a new and distinct cultural attraction.
- visible support for community-focused entertainment.
Audience Reach
Our guests include families, couples, friend groups, Renaissance fair enthusiasts, fantasy fans, and casual visitors. These cohorts value hands-on experiences, local businesses, nature, and handcrafted goods, and are an audience inclined toward exploration, discovery, and spending on memorable experiences rather than simply passing through.
For sponsors whose brands align with tourism, hospitality, trades, local services, handmade goods, entertainment, or community engagement, this is a strong fit.
Our early survey shows strong interest from adults age 18 to 50, family groups, and guests willing to travel for a more immersive experience. Based on the data, we expect to see visitors this year from New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia, with >60% of respondents in the age range of 26-50.
Inaugural Event Attendance
Our founding event will be an intentionally limited-capacity experience, with approximately 200–300 attendees expected.
Rather than maximizing attendance in year one, our focus is on creating a strong guest experience, meaningful sponsor visibility, and a solid foundation for future growth. For sponsors, that means being part of a carefully built launch where recognition is not lost in the noise of an oversized event.
Long-Term
The long-term vision for the faire includes a full permanent village and multiple events per season. Early sponsors are not only supporting the inaugural event, but becoming part of the foundation of a destination designed to grow in visibility, reach, and returning guests over time. Securing your spot now could put your brand in front of guests for years to come, with your inclusion in a permanent on-site monument.
