The Municipality of Port Hope sets out to engage broad public participation in our facilities, events, and programs. We are pleased to present several sponsorship and advertising outlets for businesses looking to connect with their target audience and to increase their brand awareness.

Municipal events and programs

Annual Municipal events and programs that engage a wide range of demographics.

Port Hope Canada Day Celebration

Port Hope Canada Day is a homegrown festival. A free-to-attend event that includes programming (in person and online) for a range of demographics.

Our goal for the Port Hope Canada Day Celebration is bring community members and those visiting together for a fun and shared experience.

We have a wide range of sponsorship ideas and levels for your consideration ranging from $250 to platinum pricing. New and custom opportunities are only a phone call away.

Port Hope Arts Festival

The Port Hope Arts Festival is a free-to-attend event that celebrates the arts across the community.

We have a variety of sponsorship options for your consideration and are interested in discussing new and custom opportunities.

Outdoor Movies in the Park

Using a giant inflatable screen, we transform Memorial Park into an outdoor movie theatre. Film nights are presented to the captive audience, free of charge, on 4 separate nights. Opportunities to present pre-movie entertainment, commercials and other on-site activations are only a phone call away.

Holiday Lighting Display

Every year, the lights and decorations transform Memorial and Rotary Park into a winter wonderland. Typically, the lights are switched on at a lighting ceremony as part of the Candlelight Festival. The Candlelight Festival is a part of the holiday kick-off weekend in Port Hope, taking place on the last Friday of November, the day before the annual Santa Claus Parade.

As a result of COVID-19, these annual events are under review and may not take place as normal. As such, the lighting display will be more important than ever to help brighten the spirits of our community. This charming installation will impact those that drive past or walk through from November 26 until January 2.

During the dark of winter, the illuminated park brings a sense of joy and magic to our downtown.

The seasonal installation has been taking place in Memorial Park since 2000. This year, the Municipality of Port Hope plans to install various new lighting features to enhance the installation to create an even more magical experience for the community. In order to accomplish this, we are seeking sponsorship.

To explore the sponsorship of new features, contact us to review additional opportunities.
