Last-Minute Sponsorship Opportunities Available at Henshaws Bed Fest 2026
With the world-famous Knaresborough Bed Race just around the corner, there's still time for local businesses to get involved in one of North Yorkshire's most anticipated events and make a real difference to the community at the same time.
Henshaws Bed Fest 2026, taking place on 14th June at the Arts and Crafts Centre in Knaresborough, runs alongside the Bed Race and offers businesses a fantastic last-minute opportunity to put their brand in front of thousands of people. With crowds of up to 50,000 flocking to Knaresborough for the Bed Race weekend, the footfall alone makes this a compelling proposition for any business looking for visibility.
Sponsorship packages start from just £100 for display corporate branding, with options including barrel sponsorship (£100), Gin Shack sponsorship (£300), branded beer mats (£600), and main stage branding (£750). There are also VIP ticket packages from £500, ideal for rewarding your team while doing something genuinely worthwhile for the local community.
Every penny raised goes directly to Henshaws, a northern charity supporting people living with sight loss and a range of disabilities to live independently and with purpose.
Even if the timing doesn't work this year, Bed Fest is well worth adding to your 2027 diary. Sponsorship packages sell quickly, and businesses that get in early benefit from maximum visibility across all event marketing from March onwards.
