Party And Support A Worthy Cause!
|
|
To show our heartfelt
appreciation for the heroic efforts of
our “First Responders,” Gentilly Fest
will donate 80% of the proceeds from
this year’s festival to the New Orleans
Police and Fire Departments for facility
and/or equipment improvements at police
stations and firehouses in the Gentilly
area.

Show Us What You’re Working With!!

Is your crawfish pie to
die for? Sell a product used in home
restoration? Want to reach at least
5,000 customers in a single day?
Although Gentilly Fest seeks the
participation of Gentilly restaurants,
businesses, artists, and musicians,
we welcome involvement from all New
Orleans neighborhoods.

|
And Now For Our Sponsors!

Whether you can
contribute $75 or $5,000, Gentilly Fest
has sponsorship opportunities to fit
every budget. Whether you’re the title
sponsor for our music stage, or listed
in the program as a friend of Gentilly,
your generosity (and advertised
product/services) will reach thousands
of New Orleanians.
