2 Partnership Invitation The 2018 festival continues the tradition of wholesome family entertainment that has become a Midwest destination attracting over 54,000 visitors during the weekend event. We received great accolades from our partners for combining the Partners Tent and the Ida Christmas Mall Tent. Visitor traffic in the partner tent was estimated at 40,000. To provide maximum marketing benefits, we offer many opportunities to become a presenting partner that will showcase your company in an event title or as an entertainment partner. Partnership packages offer over 14 million potential media contacts through television, radio, magazines, newspaper, social media, and include a display /marketing space in the partner tent, which is warm, open, festive and generates high visitor traffic all day. All of our programs can be built to meet your media and financial requirements. The festival will present the Christmas in Ida Family Concert Series, featuring the popular Pop- Music, Country Music, and Commemorative Concerts. Featuring national headliner artists, the concerts are professionally produced and are free to festival visitors. The Christmas in Ida Festival is a member of the Monroe County Community Foundation. Contributions that are made through the Foundation will qualify as a charitable contribution as a 501 (c) (3) organization and receive full income tax credits. The 2017 festival was a wonderful success that again broke all-time attendance records. We hope you can join us at the 36 th Anniversary, Christmas in Ida Festival and Parade of Lights, where new traditions and fond family memories begin.
