There are a ton of ways and opportunities to get involved in the Fête de la Musique. The most obvious one is to organise a concert as a stage or to take part as a musician – or of course attending one of the huge number of free concerts as a guest. But that’s not where it stops. Because you can also become a supporter of #FETEBerlin.
In this article, we’d like to give you some ideas on how you can go about that – and hopefully get you fired up to do so at the same time! And there are of course no limits to your imagination in ways that you could support the #FETEBerlin – and the possibilities go way beyond the ideas that we present here….
Think big or forget it? Nope, we start small and feel our way forward!
Offer your support as a private individual
Your support can start small. Bilaterally and as a private individual. By simply being there and helping, and of course at the stage or artist of your choice. Uncomplicated and low-threshold offers are for example:
- Throwing something into the hat of street musicians
- Offering sound engineering for a stage
- Enabling technical support or hire
- Offer catering
Arrange a presentation or small sponsorship as a shop or service provider
If you run a local business or offer a local service, there’s bound to be some service that you could offer to a local stage – while advertising and gaining visibility for your work in the best way possible. There’s an overview of the stages in our matchmaking tool. Feel free to register there as a supporter and search for suitable partners. The rest, i.e. the quid pro quo and the type of support, is then up to you and the stage.
Cooperations that go beyond local visibility
Campaigns involving several stages can also be organised – initiated by you and put into place with our support (if so wished). For example, support for particularly sustainable, environmentally friendly or inclusive stages or acts is eminently possible. If you are interested but are still missing contact persons or concept ideas, please get in touch with us at hallo@fetedelamusique.de.
Become a sponsor of the Fête de la Musique
It may be a little late for this year, but we would like to sow the seeds of ideas here and give you space for ideas and initiatives.
What was previously not possible has now become simply necessary, due to the shrinking financial scope everywhere. The Fête de la Musique is open to sponsorship. As the range of potential co-operations is immense on the one hand, and on the other hand consideration should be given to the plural and diverse interests and, above all, opinions of all participants, direct communication with the Fête de la Musique team is the best way forward. Please get in touch at hallo@fetedelamusique.de.
On the subject of primary sponsorship of the Fête de la Musique Berlin
If you happen to be or know a large company that is a good fit for the Fête de la Musique and would like to use the huge potentical reach for advertising messages (that don’t contradict the spirit of the Fête de la Musique): please get in touch! We look forward to knitting together some exciting marketing co-operations.
And in all these things: Passing on the message, developing ideas and giving extra oomph to your own initiative is always a good thing!
