SPONSORSHIP

We are incredibly excited to run the 63rd Pageant at Lobethal in 2026. Organising this event is well under way and it promises to be even better than last year - if that's possible!

The amazing committee have organised insurance, toilets, first aid, security, musicians, bands, seating and lighting. Unfortunately everything has gone up in price, so we are looking for sponsors to help pay for these expenses.
This community event is for you and we need your support. You can have your name in lights, or be anonymous - the choice is yours. If you have a business, sponsorship is tax deductible and you get a Tax Invoice to support your advertising expense. Get your name out there and the locals will support you.
Please go to our website at www.lobethalpageant.com.au, click on the green button saying Registration Forms, and download the sponsorship form.
