Partner with Cold Mountain Music Festival 2026

Support the magic of the mountains while putting your brand center-stage. Cold Mountain Music Festival is more than a concert; it’s a premier gathering of music lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, and families set against the stunning backdrop of the Shining Rock Wilderness.

By becoming a sponsor, you aren’t just purchasing advertisements – you’re investing in our local community and the non-profit programming of Lake Logan, Camp Henry, and the Outdoor School – all while gaining unparalleled access to a dedicated, high-value audience.

Why Sponsor CMMF?

  • Targeted Exposure: Reach attendees from across Haywood County, Western North Carolina, and the greater Southeast region.
  • Brand Alignment: Associate your business with sustainability, community, and top-tier Americana music – including investment in youth and up-and-coming artists from WNC and beyond.
  • Turnkey Marketing: Benefit from our integrated social media, e-blast, and on-site promotionals, such as main stage banners, printed programs, sponsors’ swag tent to share your branded items, shout-outs from the main stage, and more!

     

The “Perks” of the Partnership:
We believe in taking care of our partners. You and your guests will enjoy:

  • VIP Access: All-access passes to the Sponsors’ backstage tent and Boojom’s VIP hospitality tent on the festival field
  • VIP Experience: VIP parking passes and shuttle to ensure a seamless weekend.
  • VIP Hospitality: Enjoy Southern Appalachian hospitality at its finest with homemade appetizers, shaded seating, and happy hours with our festival Boojum VIP pass holders
 

The Impacts of your Gift

  • Over the course of 2025 nearly 500 campers, counselors, chaplains, nurses, staff, and volunteers were transformed by the beloved community cultivated at Camp Henry – and – nearly 4,000 multigenerational lifelong learners came to Lake Logan for inspiration and rejuvenation at our Retreat Center and our Outdoor School.
  • For 25 years, the beauty of Lake Logan has inspired growth and connection. We now have some really important work before us. Our campus has a long way to go before the damages of Helene no longer impede our ability to fully utilize the gifts of nature that surround us. Your sponsorship is a direct investment in the life-changing programs that define our legacy and help secure the future of Lake Logan for generations to come!

We hope you will join us in helping make 2026 Cold Mountain Music Festival a success.
