Become a sponsor and join us!

Every year the community of Blackburn Hamlet and the surrounding area enjoy our local three day fair on the first weekend in June. This exciting community event has become a must-attend weekend of fun and activities for people of all ages.

Thanks to local businesses, every year the Blackburn Funfair keeps improving – attendance grows and new memories are created. Your donations help contribute to an amazing event and this year, with your help, we hope to feature a new list of activities that will have people talking all summer!

Be a part of the fun this year by making a contribution on behalf of your business.

In return for your generosity, all contributors of the Funfair receive advertising in a variety of mediums consisting of signs at the Fair, the local BANAR newsletter, the community website, social networks, as well as our cinema screening at our Friday movie night.  Your business’ support will contribute to a community event and generate publicity in ways that conventional advertising won’t.

Sponsorship Opportunities

  • Bronze sponsors ($100 or less) will have advertising in 1 medium.
  • Silver sponsors ($101 to $499) will have advertising in 2 mediums.
  • Gold sponsors (contributions over $500) will have advertising in ALL mediums.

Sponsor by contacting sponsorship@blackburnfunfair.ca. Please ensure you provide a logo (in .jpeg format) for use in advertising.

Donations welcome

Your donation of time and effort would also be greatly appreciated. If you and your staff would like to get involved and volunteer to help us, please contact us at: infoblackburnfair@gmail.com. As the fair grows each year, we require more volunteers to manage all of our events and activities.

Please support the Blackburn Funfair by forwarding your donation prior to the last week in May. We would love to hear from you and thank you in advance for your generous and appreciated donation and hope to also see you at this year’s Funfair as either a volunteer or supporter.
