Sponsorship Opportunities

The Ottawa Lumière Festival continues to grow at an amazing speed with over 8,500 participants of all ages and from all parts of the region attending in 2006. Sponsors have a wonderful opportunity to link their name and logo to a unique multicultural event celebrating Ottawa's diverse artistic and cultural expressions.

Focused on a celebration of light - the universal symbol of what is held in common with all communities, the magical aura of the evening is long remembered by participants. We would warmly welcome your support as part of the "charmed circle" of Lumière 2007.

Your support will make a real difference to the success of this community building evening. As a non-profit organization, the Crichton Cultural Community Centre relies on Lumière sponsorship funds for Festival visual artists and performers, posters, and supplies.

NEW FOR 2007 : The festival will start with a procession beginning outside the Crichton Cultural Community Centre. This provides our main sponsors the opportunity to set up a banner and/or booth outside 200 Crichton Street from 12:00 pm until 9 pm.
