We invite service-based businesses (home improvement, insurance, chiropractors, etc) to partner with Festivals of Cedarburg as an Oktoberfest sponsor. As one of Ozaukee County's favorite German-esque celebrations, we see over 18,000 attendees come to Downtown Cedarburg to enjoy the festivities. This is a fantastic opportunity to share valuable information about your business while supporting a non-profit organization. Festivals of Cedarburg, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to celebrating and supporting our vibrant community through four large-scale events each year. Producing these events requires thousands of volunteer hours, the commitment of local businesses, and — most importantly — the generosity of sponsors. Sponsorship dollars directly offset the ever-increasing costs of logistics, safety, entertainment, and infrastructure that make these festivals possible. Our goal is to keep festival participation affordable for local artists, small businesses, and makers, while ensuring the 200,000+ annual visitors to our events experience a safe, enjoyable, and memorable celebration of Cedarburg’s charm. With the help of your valued contribution, we aim to provide more opportunities for community engagement, increased traffic to our business district, and grants and scholarships that directly benefit the Cedarburg community.
