Sponsorship

Sponsors & Partnerships

Sponsors are crucial to BATS. 

As a Charitable Trust we work really hard to ensure that art is accessible to all, which means keeping fees low for artists and audiences. 

BATS is unique both locally and nationally in the way it supports new work development from high school talent through to Arts Laureates such as Nina Nawalowalo. With this broad engagement driving all activity year round we embed mentorship, internships and capability building through intergenerational working relationships on stage and behind the scenes.

Our three level building is run by passionate staff who are also artists. A visit to a show means you may be hosted by a dancer, writer, producer or drag diva out of ‘role’. Backing BATS supports hundreds of local artists each year in multifaceted ways as we work to ensure the future of our wonderful city’s live arts at a perilous time. 

We have lots of ways to partner with us, including naming rights of performance spaces, and event hosting. Get in touch with our partnerships manager Lyndee-Jane to discuss opportunities that will work for you.
