Awards and Testimonials
A tailor made sponsorship…
Each partnership is negotiated to personally address the outcomes sought from within the sponsorship. This strategy has enabled the Adelaide Festival to win partnership accolades (2008 and 2010 recipient of two Australian Business Arts Foundation awards) recognising excellence in partnership and best practice.
Testimonials
‘The Adelaide Festival, an internationally recognised event for the community, by the community, is the key event for the Arts on the South Australian calendar. The Bank has proudly sponsored the Adelaide Festival since 2004, demonstrating our strong commitment to the South Australian community in support of our vision to be Australia’s leading customer-connected Bank.’

Bendigo and Adelaide Bank
‘Being Community Partner for the 2010 Adelaide Festival was a great success for Santos. As an energy company, it was a natural fit for us to help bring two unforgettable high-energy events to the SA community. A highlight for me was experiencing the energy of almost 100 of our employees, who volunteered at A Little More Light and Northern Lights to make these events even more special for South Australians and visitors alike.’
David Knox, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director

‘It is with great pride that the University of South Australia continues to support the Adelaide Festival as one of the most important cultural events in the Australian calendar and an occasion that offers an opportunity to engage with the visual arts at the highest level of excellence.
The Adelaide Festival is a window to the world and attracts some of the most illuminating and fascinating talent. Our partnership to support its highly esteemed Visual Arts program is a perfect fit for the University. As home to the second largest public art gallery in the state, the wonderful Samstag Museum of Art, and as the key educator of hundreds of visual arts practitioners, who are making their mark here at home and around the globe, we have an abiding commitment to the visual arts.’
