NEWS: Westcoast renews Henley Festival sponsorship

Henley Festival – the UK’s only black-tie music and arts festival – is thrilled to announce that Westcoast has signed a new contract that will see their Headline Sponsorship of the Festival continue for the next three years: Henley Festival 2025, 2026 and 2027

Westcoast – a Berkshire based technology company distributing some of the world’s leading tech brands – have long supported Henley Festival, which was founded as a charity more than 40 years ago, and their mission to champion new talent through its charitable programme RISE.

RISE gives a platform for musicians and visual artists to take their first steps on stage, as well offering opportunities for young people aspiring to work behind the scenes, and for 2024 – thanks to Westcoast’s support – the Festival expanded this even further through the inaugural ‘Westcoast RISING Star Award’ – which recognised singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist KATYA.

Jo Bausor, CEO of Henley Festival, said: “With the highly anticipated return of Henley Festival in just eight days, I am thrilled to announce that Westcoast will continue as our Headline Sponsor for the next three years. Their commitment is vital to delivering our charitable mission and the RISE programme, which is at the core of everything we do. I want to offer a heartfelt thank you to Joe Hemani and Westcoast – your support means we can do even more to champion emerging talent and provide paid opportunities to perform, exhibit and enjoy hands-on work placements. We couldn’t do this without you!”

Jess Tyley, marketing director of Westcoast, said: “Today’s announcement – that Westcoast will continue our Headline Sponsorship and support of Henley Festival for 2025, 2026 and 2027 – comes with great excitement. We share the Festival’s commitment to growing and celebrating wonderful new talent, and we are delighted to be part of this magical event.”
