Why this works for you
Audience fit beats headcount. ZAOstock puts your name in front of the arts community of the Acadia corridor on a day built around music, families, and local pride - not a trade show.
Stacked on the established Art of Ellsworth - year one of the festival, not year one of the audience.
Annual visitors pass through neighboring Acadia. Ellsworth is the gateway town.
No ticket wall between your brand and the whole community.
The ZAO has already produced festivals in NYC and Miami. This team ships.
Sponsorship tiers
Every tier is a starting point - we tailor the package to what your business actually wants out of the day. In-kind support (sound, staging, food, lodging, print) is priced at equivalent tier value.
- Name on the ZAOstock site and printed program
- Thank-you post across ZAO channels
- Everything in Friend of the Fest
- Logo on the stage banner
- Social shoutout during the festival day
- Everything in Bronze
- A named utility activation: water refill station, phone charging table, or kids zone
- Featured in the official recap video
- "Presented with your name" placement on stage, site, and program
- Stage mentions through the day
- Booth or branded lounge on site
- Full post-event data report
- First right of renewal for year two
The transparency promise
Within 14 days of the festival, every sponsor gets a report with attendance estimates, social reach numbers, recap media, and - because the ZAO runs on open infrastructure - artist payouts you can verify onchain.
No other event in Maine can show you receipts like this.
How to start
One conversation. Tell Zaal what your business wants out of the day and we will shape a package around it. Email, Telegram, or a call - whatever is easiest.
