Lacy Landrum, Chairperson of the 2023 Airshow, recently addressed the opportunity for local small businesses to add sponsorship of the Hammond Northshore Regional Airshow to their advertising budgets for 2023.

The Airshow will be held October 21-22, 2023. This year, sponsors can attend a special night show included with their sponsorship. Learn how becoming a small business sponsor o�ers next-level fun and entertainment.

Night Show Feast And Fun

Landrum stressed that sponsorship packages are available in a range of pricing options that make it possible for even small businesses to enhance their community presence. The 2023 sponsors get close-up views of the airplanes and a chance to interact with the pilots after watching the show from front-row seats.

Small business sponsorship packages begin at the $2,500 range. That reasonable price includes two tickets to the night show, plus six general admission tickets they can share with friends, family, or clients for the daytime Airshow events.

The $2,500 sponsorship tier also includes their business logo on the Airshow page and community announcements about their company’s sponsorship of one of the most unique outdoor events in the state.

The fun times only get better for small business sponsorships of $5,000. That donation includes a photo opportunity holding a large replica of your sponsorship check, your company’s logo posted on the Airshow website, access to the sponsor entrance, four tickets to the night show, six tickets to the Sponsor Hangar for food and drinks for two days, four parking passes for two days, and 10 tickets to the general admission shows.

These sponsors can continue the fun at the after party held in the Sponsor’s Hangar. There, they can mingle and nosh on delicious food and libations. Another perk is the preferred parking access that brings them close to the action without having far to walk.

Small business sponsorships of $10,000 will receive all the benefits enjoyed by lower-tier sponsors, plus more business visibility during the sponsorship year.

Their companies get listed on both the Airshow website and program, and there will be announcements of their business sponsorships made during the Airshow. This group also gets 10 tickets to the Sponsor Hangar for two days, six tickets to the night show, six parking passes for both days, and 20 general admission tickets good for either day of the Airshow.

More Sponsors Make a Better Airshow

Packages are structured to fit the goals of sponsoring companies. Employees are welcome to volunteer wearing shirts that enhance their business presence. They can assist nonprofits operating food booths, volunteer at the gate as the initial contact for more than 40,000 visitors expected this year. Your employees can volunteer at the Kid Zone or choose other opportunities that align with your company’s values.
