Partner up for quirky corporate sponsor perks with Dance City

Dance City in Newcastle is offering quirky perks designed to have a positive impact on workforce wellbeing and brand awareness, to corporate sponsors that are real movers and shakers.

In a bid to prove that it really does care for ‘bums on seats’, Dance City is fundraising to upgrade its bench style seating in the 250 capacity theatre which hosts a spectacular programme of contemporary dance performances, which is the biggest outside London.

The organisation, which celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2016 and engages with over 10,000 individuals each year through its open access classes, learning academy and professional performance programme, has launched the Take a Seat campaign, offering the chance to sponsor a new seat for £150. All donations will be match funded by the Arts Council through its Catalyst: Evolve fund - doubling the impact of every pound raised.

• Sponsors of up to 19 seats will have their contribution acknowledged on a commemorative plaque for posterity.
• Sponsors of 20 seats (£3,000) will also qualify for a dance-based team building workshop, which will include the creation of a bespoke Maori-style HAKA for your organisation.
• Sponsoring 50 seats (£7,500) will qualify for additional perks including VIP show tickets, on-site dance classes for your team and your logo on publicity materials as a Dance City Supporter – a great way to affiliate your brand with the arts, health and wellbeing agendas.
• Investing in 100 seats (£15,000) will combine all of the above perks, plus a movie dance-along event for up to 120 people.
• By sponsoring 200 seats (£30,000), your business could secure all of the above plus a three year naming right of the theatre, and accreditation as Dance City’s Corporate Patron on all publicity.

Dance City’s Artistic Director, Anthony Baker, is enthusiastic about opportunities to engage with the business community. He says, “Dance City is a dynamic, exciting and forward thinking organisation and our purpose is to change lives through dance in the North East. We are sure there are like minded businesses we should be working with, and the Take a Seat fundraising campaign is the perfect opportunity for us to come together and shake things up!”
