Are you interested in becoming a sponsor for our 2026 Summer Concert Series?

There’s something magical about summer in Coupeville—the salty breeze off Penn Cove, the laughter drifting down Front Street, and the sound of live music bringing our community together under the warm afternoon sky. This year, the Coupeville Creative District is turning up the volume on that magic with our Free Summer Music Series, and we’d love for you to be part of it!

Every third Sunday June-September we’ll transform our Town Park and Pavillion Coupeville into a vibrant hub of song, art, and connection. Local favorites, emerging musicians, and regional talent will take the stage—all free to the public—celebrating creativity, community, and the unique spirit that makes Coupeville shine.

As a sponsor, your support fuels more than just great music. It helps us:

• Provide fair pay to local musicians and sound crews
• Create a welcoming, family-friendly environment in our historic town center
• Showcase Coupeville Creative District as a thriving destination for arts and culture
• Strengthen the local economy through increased downtown visitors

We offer several sponsorship levels—each designed to spotlight your business throughout the series.

Whether your logo shines on our stage banners, event posters, and programs, or you’re featured in our online promotions and social media shoutouts, your brand will be front and center with hundreds of locals and visitors each week. Your partnership will make this season truly unforgettable. Together, we’ll fill our town with music, creativity, and community pride.

We’d love to discuss how we can tailor a sponsorship package that fits your goals.

With warm regards and excitement,
