About the application

Become a sponsor of PearlPalooza and support downtown Albany's signature, FREE outdoor music festival on North Pearl Street! Your support for this treasured annual event will help boost local business, provide fun entertainment for residents and guests of all ages, and position your brand alongside one of Downtown's most exciting and highly anticipated events. PearlPalooza is downtown Albany’s highly-anticipated all-ages music festival. Produced by 501(c)3 organization the Downtown Albany Business Improvement District (BID), acclaimed independent radio station WEQX, Albany promotion company Sugar Productions, and Downtown bars & restaurants, the event includes a diverse lineup of locally and internationally-acclaimed musical acts, the Capital Region’s only street-wide mass yoga gathering, and high-quality local vendors - all steps away from some of Albany’s finest dining, retail and entertainment establishments on the N Pearl Street corridor. Over the years, PearlPalooza has featured an incredible array of cutting-edge talent curated by WEQX, including Grammy winners Portugal. The Man and Grammy nominee K.Flay, gold-selling artists Matt and Kim, and eclectic favorites like Phantogram, Robert Delong, Rubblebucket, Fishbone, and Galactic. PearlPalooza values community as highly as creativity. In 2017, PearlPalooza hosted the Albany area’s first-ever mass yoga gathering, YogaPalooza. The event has become a tradition and continues to grow, drawing hundreds of yogis each year. In addition, PearlPalooza serves as a showcase for local businesses, artists, musicians, and vendors, all highlighted prominently on-stage and on the street each year. Downtown bars & restaurants have been integral to planning and organizing PearlPalooza since the event's inception and continue to play a major part in its success. Primary media sponsor WEQX reaches listeners in the Capital Region, the Adirondacks, southern Vermont and New Hampshire, and Western Massachusetts, with a core audience of 50/50 male and female listeners aged 25- 34. The combined promotional channels of WEQX and the Downtown Albany BID reach approximately 22,000 email subscribers and 70,000 followers across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, LinkedIn and YouTube.
