Partnership Opportunities SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2018 WEST BANK OF THE FLATS CLEVELAND 20,000+ ATTENDEES
ABOUT BRITE WINTER WAS STARTED AS AN IDEA: that Clevelanders don t want to hibernate through countless brutal winters. Fast forward nine years and now that idea has grown into the region s top music and arts festival. Brite is once again headed back to the Flats in 2018 to bring together the region s best sights, sounds and smells for our biggest winter celebration yet. Brite Winter has become something of a wintry institution in this town. We re a gritty, freezing tempbred city, so a music and arts festival in the middle of winter OUTDOORS, no less is just as sensible as anything. Plus, the music and arts offerings are topnotch and getting better each year. ERIC SANDY, SCENE MAGAZINE 2 I PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

EXPERIENCE FESTIVALGOERS IN 2017 EXPERIENCED: the fire & ice tower (pictured), ice-carving demonstrations, fire pits with s mores, infrared heat mapping projected larger than life onto a building, dance parties in the art tents, ping-pong, food trucks, cornhole, ice bowling, a pop-up marching band, and buskers all in addition to the beautiful winter art and a diverse music lineup from Cleveland and around the country. It was so well organized. I was amazed by how much time and thoughtfulness went into making sure there was something for every age group to experience. 2017 BRITE GOER 5 5 I PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
