The Board of the Regina Music Festival Association is currently seeking the following sponsors in order to meet our $95,000.00 budget for Festival 2024
Growth through Performance!
There has been a Music Festival in Regina for over 110 years! But… we can’t produce this event for young musicians without a lot of help from Volunteers, Donors, and from major Sponsors of our annual event. We are actively planning for Festival 2024, and hopefully, you can join our team.
If you have been a financial supporter over the years, Thank You!
Sponsorship Levels
The Regina Music Festival is run each year with the help of Sponsors and Donors who help us cover the 65% of our production and operational costs each year.
The various levels of support are acknowledged at different levels, as the table shows, but any and all donations make a huge difference to the young musicians who will “Grow Through Performance” in Festival 2024.
A Discipline Sponsor chooses which area to support: Piano, Vocal, Strings, Choral, Pipe Organ, Musical Theatre, Brass/Woodwinds/Percussion.
If interested, please contact our President, Joanne Hillis.

DONATIONS
We have many, many loyal donors. Without them, we could not cover all of the expenses of our festival: adjudicators fees as well as their travel and living expenses, venue costs, printing, equipment rental, and general operational expenses. With our donor’s help we have managed to remain in the black each year (except one), albeit each year it is typically under $1,000.00.
You can help – with whatever size financial support you are able. There are several ways to donate.
Visit Us at the Festival
In the festival office you can drop off cash, cheque or pay by credit card.
You can mail a cheque to RMFA Treasurer Donna Ell, 2931 Montreal Crescent, Regina, SK S4P 2W6.
E-transfer
You can E-transfer to treasurer@reginamusicfestival.ca
You may wish to offer a Scholarship
Many of our scholarship donors do so in the name of a loved one. They choose the discipline that most appeals to them (possibly the one they were involved in). Simply contact Katherine Bergman, head of our Scholarship Committee, and she can help you set up an Annual Scholarship.
All donations over $20.00 will receive a tax receipt.
