Sponsorship Information:

The Creston Valley is one of the most important bird habitats in Canada with over 300 species recorded. Since 2013, the Creston Valley Bird Fest has celebrated the birds, the arts, and the agriculture of the Creston Valley.

With your sponsorship, you will contribute to one of the most popular annual events in the Creston Valley. Visiting participants support local accommodations, art studios, farms, and businesses in the valley. You will be encouraging people of all ages and abilities to explore and enjoy the Creston Valley’s unique ecology and diverse bird-life. 

In return, we will recognize you in our marketing materials and through event promotions. Please review our sponsor categories on the next page to select the option that works best for you.
