Holi Rave Detroit – Sponsorship Opportunities

Saturday, April 18, 2026 | Tangent Gallery | Detroit, MI
11:30 AM – 4:00 PM | 18+ Daytime Cultural Music Event

Holi Rave Detroit is a daytime cultural music experience inspired by the South Asian tradition of Holi, blending modern house music, visual art, immersive production, and community celebration. The event features two stages (indoor & outdoor), live DJs, color powder experiences, LED visuals, and curated art vendors, drawing a diverse, multicultural audience.

Why should you sponsor?

Holi Rave Detroit offers sponsors a unique opportunity to align with a high-energy, culturally relevant event that blends music, art, and community in an authentic and engaging way. As a first-of-its-kind daytime celebration inspired by the South Asian tradition of Holi, the event connects brands with a diverse, multicultural audience through shared experiences rather than passive advertising.

Key reasons to support Holi Rave Detroit include:

• Access to a Highly Engaged Audience
  The event attracts young professionals, creatives, and culturally curious attendees who actively participate, share content, and engage with on-site experiences—creating meaningful brand interaction rather than background exposure.

• Authentic Cultural Alignment
  Holi Rave Detroit is rooted in a globally recognized cultural tradition and reimagined through modern music and visual arts. Sponsors are associated with cultural celebration, creativity, and inclusion—not generic nightlife promotion.

• Strong Brand Visibility & Experiential Touchpoints
  Sponsors receive prominent placement through step-and-repeat backdrops, on-site activations, LED visuals, and post-event photo and video content—ensuring brand visibility both during and after the event.

• Content & Social Amplification
  With professional photography, attendee sharing, and influencer engagement, sponsors benefit from organic digital exposure as event content circulates across social platforms.

• Support of Emerging Artists & Creative Community
  Sponsorship directly supports artist programming and provides platforms for South Asian DJs and creatives, allowing brands to demonstrate tangible support for arts, culture, and representation.

• First-Year Growth Opportunity
  As an inaugural event, sponsors have the chance to get in early on a new cultural brand with strong growth potential, helping shape its identity and benefiting from long-term association as the event expands in future years.

By supporting Holi Rave Detroit, sponsors are not just placing a logo—they are investing in a memorable cultural experience, meaningful community engagement, and a brand moment that attendees associate with joy, creativity, and connection.
