2024 Sponsorships
Support our Summer Programming
Sponsorship Opportunities
We’ve got a great lineup of summer films scheduled for the first weekend of each month this summer, and your sponsorship makes these films possible. Sponsorships cover the expenses of the films, so we can offer free admission. (Kids are free, and for adults we suggest a $5.00 donation, but no one is turned away.)
Sponsorships foster a sense of community pride and engagement, aligning your business with a cherished local landmark that holds historical and cultural significance. By supporting activities of the theatre — and therefore supporting the preservation — your business can demonstrate a commitment to our community.
Plus, sponsoring the theatre offers valuable brand exposure. The theatre attracts diverse audiences, including residents, tourists, and enthusiasts of the arts, which provides sponsors a platform to showcase your products or services to a broad demographic. This exposure can enhance brand visibility, build customer loyalty, and attract new clientele.
Tentative Schedule:
- June 7: Elemental
- July 5: Barbie
- August 2: Wonka
This summer’s Elitch Encore is a series featuring LIVE shows at Denver’s oldest cultural venue! The return of live performances to this historic venue is a remarkable milestone for Denver.
Please keep an eye out for announcements regarding the lineup, dates, and ticket sales. The return of live performances to the Historic Elitch Theatre marks a significant revival, and it’s an event not to be missed!
We are not seeking separate donors for the live performances — your Summer Films sponsorship will also be featured at these live events.
Consider Elitch Encore an added bonus to your film sponsorship!
Shows are planned for August, September, and October. (Shows will be announced when finalized.)

We have a unique sponsorship opportunity for one business looking to support the theatre and also help us thank our 100+ summer volunteers! This sponsorship costs $1,500 and it covers the cost of our volunteer t-shirts, plus it contributes to our end-of-year volunteer appreciation.
As our Volunteer Sponsor your commitment goes beyond mere financial assistance; it symbolizes a dedication to the community. Sponsoring the Historic Elitch Theatre is not only a strategic marketing opportunity — it offers valuable brand exposure with your logo on the back of the shirts — but it is also a meaningful way to invest in the preservation of Denver’s oldest cultural venue.
For our summer events, we invite local businesses to partner with us to support our mission to preserve and promote the rich cultural heritage of the Elitch Theatre. By becoming a sponsor, you’ll not only align your brand with our historic venue but also gain exposure to our diverse audience through various marketing channels.
Your sponsorship will directly contribute to our summer events, including films and live performances, ensuring memorable experiences for our community.
As a token of our appreciation, sponsors will receive prominent recognition on our website, social media, event signage, and more. Join us in making a difference and showcasing your commitment to the arts in our community.
Deadline EXTENDED: Friday, April 26!
