A world of music. One city. For nearly four decades, the Savannah Music Festival (SMF) has filled historic downtown Savannah with world-class classical, jazz, American roots, and international music. Our two-week springtime festival and off-season events pair exceptional production values with warm Southern hospitality, creating unforgettable, intimate connections between artists and audiences. With support from corporate partners, SMF can price tickets significantly lower than the national average while providing a premium listening experience and artistic programming that rivals larger cities, making incredible live music accessible to all. Corporate partnerships connect businesses with an affluent, loyal, and culturally engaged audience while supporting incredible live music and free music education programs serving more than 10,000 participants each year. From client entertainment to employee appreciation, Savannah Music Festival can customize a sponsorship package to meet your needs.
Let’s build a partnership that meets your goals!
