The Hendersonville Pride Festival brings together people from across Western North Carolina to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and the values of inclusion, visibility, and respect. Each year the festival creates a welcoming space where neighbors, families, businesses, and organizations can gather to celebrate community.

Support from local sponsors makes this event possible. Sponsorship helps fund entertainment, local performers, community programs, and the resources needed to host a safe and welcoming festival for everyone who attends.

Why Sponsor Pride

Sponsoring the Hendersonville Pride Festival allows your organization to support an important community event while connecting with thousands of attendees from Hendersonville and the surrounding region.

Sponsors receive meaningful visibility before and during the festival through marketing, event signage, and community recognition. More importantly, sponsorship shows a public commitment to inclusion and support for the LGBTQ+ community.
