Support from series, performance, and program sponsors helps to offset artist fees and production costs, allowing us to bring world-renowned artists to our stages and our community.

With a unique year-round calendar of performances and public programs, there are many good reasons to consider sponsorship of Stanford Live. With a broad range of programming, there is something for everyone.

At Stanford Live, we are committed to presenting a wide range of the finest performances from around the world to foster a vibrant community and provide distinctive experiences for all to enjoy.

In addition to presenting the highest caliber of performing arts from across the globe, commissioning new work and deepening community engagement remain central to our organization. Our artist residency and commissioning programs allow us to support emerging artists and strengthen our connections to the many communities we serve. Our education and community programs focus on giving back to our community through the arts.

We invite the corporate and institutional funder community to partner with us in bringing Stanford and Bay Area communities into conversation with the work being imagined and performed on our stages.

Stanford Live’s Corporate Partners enjoy the opportunity to entertain at Bing Concert Hall and Frost Amphitheater. From complimentary performance tickets and parking to opportunities for private receptions and building tours, we have something for you.
