Sponsorship Opportunities

The Algonquin Theatre is a special place where community, culture, and creativity come together. With the support of our community through sponsorships like those detailed below, our programming brings Muskoka to life with amateur and professional artists from our own backyard and across the globe.

There’s nothing quite like live music by the water to capture the spirit of summer in Huntsville. Concerts on the Dock is back for another unforgettable season, and with it comes a standout opportunity for one local business to take centre stage as the presenting sponsor.

For more than a decade, this much-loved series has brought the community together for free, high-quality performances in a relaxed, lakeside setting. Friends, families, and visitors gather at the Town Docks to enjoy an evening of music and connection, set against the stunning Muskoka River backdrop.

This year, we’re offering one exclusive presenting sponsorship: a chance to align your brand with a signature summer tradition that celebrates local talent, creates meaningful community moments, and brings audiences back week after week.

Presenting Sponsorship: A full-season partnership with impact – $5,000
This opportunity includes branding across the entire concert series and the chance to connect directly with attendees at each event.

Sponsorship Benefits:

Lead recognition as the Presenting Sponsor on all promotional materials
Branding and link on the Concerts on the Dock webpage at AlgonquinTheatre.ca
Name credit in the official media release launching the season
On-site presence at each concert — set up a table, offer giveaways, or engage with the crowd
Community goodwill — support a program that provides free entertainment and directly benefits local performers (donations collected go straight to the artists)
