Support the Festival

The Petworth Festival has thrived over its forty-plus years for a variety of reasons, but none more important than the consistent and generous financial and in-kind support we have received from a large group of individuals and companies. This extended family of Supporters, Sponsors, Patrons, Friends and Volunteers has contributed immeasurably towards making the Festival what it is.

This support continues to be valued – and needed: in fact needed like never before. The disruption during the pandemic dented our accounts but not our ambitions so your support will help ensure that the Festival continues both to prosper and to bring great artists and authors to our community year in, year out.

Become a Patron or a Friend

Individuals and households can support the Petworth Festival by becoming a Patron or Friend. Benefits include priority booking for the summer festival and a 5% discount on tickets purchased during that period. Patrons and Friends also receive preview information for both festivals, have the summer brochure posted to them and an invitation to join us at the annual supporters’ summer festival launch party in April.
