Artist Sponsorship

Sponsoring Waterperry Opera Festival artists offers a unique chance to support the careers of young and emerging talent. Every year a new cohort of amazing artists join the festival. As a sponsor, you’ll have the opportunity to meet your sponsored artist, enjoy behind-the-scenes access to their preparation, and receive recognition in our program and on our website, plus a signed photo as a thank-you.

For Young Artists, your sponsorship funds critical development opportunities, including masterclasses, recording sessions, lessons, workshops, and professional resources like headshots and production photography. It also helps cover travel, food, and accommodation, making participation accessible to all. Sponsors can attend Young Artist rehearsals and masterclasses.

Principal Artist sponsorship helps cover coaching and performance fees for emerging UK talent. Sponsors can attend London and Waterperry rehearsals, with opportunities to meet artists backstage. If sponsoring a director or conductor, you’ll be able to discuss their creative vision ahead of rehearsals.

Artist Sponsorship opportunities launch annually in the spring. To learn more in the meantime please contact us at info@waterperryoperafestival.co.uk
