Sydney Opera House — with your name on the journey
A logo on the program. A stand in the foyer. A name from the stage. Your message in our Meta ads. Your link on our site through every concert spike. And a story you can tell for the rest of your business's life: we backed Sydney's Christian arts movement before it reached the Opera House.
Here's where your brand shows up
Concrete placements — the actual surfaces your logo, name and message will appear on as a partner. Mock‑ups, not photos, but the shape is real.
Christian Proms
Where your logo lives
Each placement reaches a different audience in a different mood. Here is the full surface area of a partnership.
In the concert program
Every one of the ~800 people in the room takes one home. Front cover credit for naming‑rights partners; full or half‑page ad inside for concert partners.
On a foyer banner
A pull‑up banner with your branding next to ours, in the room where audiences gather before and after the show.
On the on‑stage slide deck
Projected during pre‑concert intros and intermission — 800 people, eyes on the screen, your logo there.
On our website
Logo + link in the footer of every page — a property that carried 27,551 visits in a single concert month and 236,000+ page views last year.
Inside our Meta ads
Your brand woven into our Facebook + Instagram ad creative for each concert push. Reach + impressions on your placement reported back to you.
In our social posts
Dedicated thank‑you posts featuring your business across our Instagram + Facebook accounts (@australianchristianarts).
In our supporter e‑newsletter
A feature in the supporter email that goes out before and after every concert.
Spoken from the stage
Acknowledgement during the concert itself — your business mentioned by name to the full audience.
On equipment + transport
Vehicle, instrument‑case and gear signage for partners funding equipment or transport — your logo travels with us.
Founding‑partner credit forever
For named partners on the road to 2027, a credit that lives on every page about the Opera House moment, in perpetuity.
What a stand at our concerts does for you
Most "sponsorship" buys a logo and stops. A stand turns the night into a sales channel — your business in the room, in the conversation, with 800 people in a warm, attentive mood.
800 people walk past you twice
Once on arrival, once at interval / exit. That is 1,600 face‑to‑face moments a night — ~4,800 across a season — in a venue where they are present, not scrolling.
Real lead capture
Sign‑ups, raffles, demo bookings, sample claims, gift‑card draws — anything that exchanges an interaction for a contact. Your sales team meets warm leads, not cold ones.
Conversation, not advertising
People in the post‑concert mood are open and curious. The trust of being IN the room beats every banner ad you could buy.
Borrow our brand goodwill
Audiences associate AChA with faith, excellence, family and integrity. Standing in our foyer transfers some of that to you — in a way no ad placement can.
Photo, scan, sample, sketch
QR codes that hand out a concert discount on YOUR product. Photo backdrops with your brand. Free sample with every sign‑up. Live demo. We will help you design the moment.
A B2B audience too
Our concerts pull church leaders, school principals, professionals, founders, board members. If your business sells to organisations — the right person is in the room.
How we advertise YOU
The recognition is not an afterthought — it is a published campaign that builds before each concert and reports back to you afterwards.
Featured in our Meta ad campaigns
Your logo + message in the paid Facebook + Instagram creative running for 4–6 weeks before each concert. Concert pushes typically deliver the highest reach window of the season — you ride that wave.
Permanent placement on our website
Logo + link in the site footer (every page) for the duration of your partnership — capturing the spikes around every concert (27,000 visitors in March 2026 alone).
A dedicated social spotlight post
A purpose‑written Instagram + Facebook post introducing your business to our audience — story, photo, link, tag. Not a logo dump.
A feature in our supporter newsletter
A spot in the email that goes out to our supporter list before and after every concert.
Spoken acknowledgement from the stage
Your business named live to the room during the concert. 800 people, no skip button.
A program ad designed by us
Full or half‑page ad in the concert program, professionally laid out in the AChA program design system — so your placement looks like it belongs.
Naming‑rights billing
"Brought to you by [YOUR BRAND]" billing on a concert or whole season — on the poster, in the program, on the stage, in the press, in every ad.
Post‑concert reach report — sent to you
After every concert your placement appears in, we send you a short report: website visits during your placement window, Meta ad impressions, social engagement, an estimate of in‑room impressions. You see the return, not guess at it.
The audience you're meeting, in real numbers
In the room
- ~800 people per major concert — ~2,400 across the season
- Grown from 800 at Hope UC Central Coast (Feb 2024) to a 1,000‑seat Chatswood Concourse (Mar 2026)
- 2,500 people on our 2025 Gold Coast Tour at the ACC national conference
- 20+ Christian denominations represented in the room: Anglican, Baptist, Catholic, Pentecostal, Orthodox (Greek, Antiochian, Macedonian, Russian, Coptic), Lutheran, Salvation Army, Methodist, Adventist, Churches of Christ, Presbyterian, Reformed, Uniting, Apostolic, Brethren, and Independent
Online (Google Analytics, last 12 months)
- 40,462 active users on our website
- 60,407 sessions · 236,035 page views
- 27,551 active users in March 2026 alone — the lead‑up to our Chatswood Concourse concert. That is ~70× a normal month.
- +214% active users week‑over‑week in the last 7 days — we are accelerating
On Meta
- Monthly content on Facebook and Instagram (@australianchristianarts)
- Paid campaigns step up in the weeks before each concert — the highest reach windows of the year
- Each partner gets a per‑campaign report after their concert: impressions, reach, engagement
And the bit you can't put a number on
- Nineteen people have come to know Jesus at our concerts
- Conducted by a QSO Assistant Conductor, La Maestra Paris quarter‑finalist, and former conductor of the BBC Concert Orchestra
- Our audience associates us with faith, excellence, youth, hope, and family. Your name lives in that company.
Why now: the next 6 months
The next two concerts are the highest‑profile moments in AChA's history so far. Partnering before them means your brand is part of the launch, not the catch‑up.
Sat 29 Aug 2026 — The Australian Christian Proms, Sydney Town Hall
Our first concert in one of Sydney's flagship civic venues. The most visible night we have ever staged. Expect concert‑month website traffic in the same shape as Chatswood — tens of thousands of impressions in the lead‑up window.
Sat 21 Nov 2026 — End‑of‑year concert
Closing the 2026 season strong and rolling momentum into our 2027 Opera House push. A natural moment for a season partner to bookend.
And then: Sydney Opera House by the end of 2027. Founding partners now are remembered for the journey.
Three sponsors, three stories
Concrete examples of partnerships we would build — one anchored on a single concert, one anchored on the next generation, one anchored on the whole season. Each shows how the recognition is designed around the business, not pulled off a shelf.
Stoneworth Legal
Indicative scaleA single‑concert partnership, anchored on the Town Hall.
What we'd produce for them
- "Presented in partnership with Stoneworth Legal" on the printed concert program — taken home by every one of the ~800 attendees
- Branded stand in the Town Hall foyer with their team in person, before the concert and at interval
- Stage acknowledgement during the concert and on the projected slide deck
- 4‑6 week Meta ad campaign in the lead‑up, carrying their tagline alongside ours
- Logo + link on every page of our website through the concert window (capturing the ~27,000‑visit concert spike)
- Dedicated social spotlight post on Instagram + Facebook
- Post‑concert reach report — impressions, social engagement, in‑room presence — emailed within the week
"For our firm, the Town Hall night sits us alongside excellence and faith in front of the exact audience we want to be known by."
The Larsen Family Foundation
Indicative scaleA youth‑program partnership across the year.
What we'd produce for them
- The Youth Orchestra introduced from the stage as "The Larsen Family Youth Orchestra" at every concert
- Permanent named credit on the Youth Orchestra page and on every program insert for the season
- An annual story / short interview with one of the scholarship students — published on our site and featured in the supporter newsletter
- A printed recognition card placed in every youth‑concert program, telling our audience whose generosity made that night possible
- Foundation logo on the new percussion gear (case decals) — their name travels with the kit for years
- An end‑of‑year letter from the conductor and section leaders, written to the family
"We wanted our giving to be remembered through the people it shaped — not as a transaction, but as a name carried by the next generation."
Cornerstone Bookkeeping
Indicative scaleA 12‑month season‑wide partnership.
What we'd produce for them
- Permanent logo + link in our website footer for the full year — every page, every visitor (40,000+ users/yr, plus every concert spike)
- Stage and program acknowledgement at all three 2026 concerts (Easter, Town Hall Proms, end‑of‑year)
- Half‑page program ad in each concert booklet, designed by us in the AChA program design system
- Inclusion in every Meta ad campaign we run all year — their logo riding every concert push
- Quarterly dedicated social post introducing them to a slightly different angle of our audience each time
- Featured in our supporter e‑newsletter at season launch and at year‑end
- A consolidated season reach report at year‑end — one document showing total impressions, social engagement, on‑the‑night audience, web visits during placement windows
"We do not need one big night — we need to be seen consistently by the people in this community for a year. This is the partnership for that."
The businesses above are illustrative examples, not real customers — they are here to show the SHAPE of a partnership we would design with you. Real partnerships start with a 20‑minute conversation about what your business actually wants out of the year.
Ways your business could help
We do not run a tiered menu. We have specific needs, and partners pick what resonates. Any of these can be a partnership — mix and match. Tell us what fits your business and we will design the recognition around it.
Instruments & equipment
Percussion (timpani, snares, cymbals, mallets), large instruments for youth (cellos, basses, French horns, tubas), choir folders + stands + podium, sheet music + licensing, mics + monitors. Quality percussion alone is one of the largest single equipment costs we carry.
Concert production
Sound system hire, lighting design + rig, live recording + video, professional concert photography, printed programs, backstage catering for performers, equipment transport.
People & financial aid
Scholarships for youth members who otherwise could not afford to join. Travel support to rehearsals. Need‑based concert tickets for those who could never afford to come. Mentorship & coaching. Guest conductor or soloist fees. New work commissions.
Concerts to underwrite
The Australian Christian Proms at Sydney Town Hall (29 Aug 2026). Our end‑of‑year concert (21 Nov 2026). Next year's Easter concert. A regional or tour stop. The Sydney Opera House night (end of 2027) — the destination, and the moment your name lives in the story forever.
Reach & outreach
Meta advertising budget for a concert push. Outreach evening at a partner church. Web hosting and tech infrastructure for the site that took 27,000 visits in March 2026 alone.
Or your own idea
You know your business and the audience you want to reach. Bring us a brief and we will design a partnership around it — concert, program, instrument, regional stop, anything.
Tax deductibility & trust
Your gift is tax‑deductible
We partner with the Australian Cultural Fund (ACF), an independent foundation that pools donations for approved Australian arts organisations. The ACF distributes your full sponsorship to AChA, and you receive a tax‑deductible receipt. The same mechanism used by major Australian arts institutions.
Governed properly
Australian Christian Arts Limited — ACNC Registered Charity, ABN 25 668 608 557, ACN 644 225 758. Fundraising authority CFN/27267 (valid to 2027). Board: Ryan Gilpin (Founder & CEO), Leon Shohmelian (Principal Solicitor, Shohmelian Legal), Dr Zachary Edward McPherson (Medical Doctor & Researcher). Oversight: ASIC, ACNC, NSW Fair Trading.
Where your money goes
For the financial year just closed, every dollar broke down like this:
- 34.3% Artistic & Production — conductors, musicians, production teams
- 22.1% Wages & Staff
- 10.1% Venue Hire & Workspace
- 9.4% Administration
- 8.3% Marketing & Outreach — where your visibility is funded
- 2.9% Volunteer Welfare · 2.8% Supplies · 2.5% Superannuation · 2.5% Travel · 1.9% Professional Development
What members and audiences are saying
"I came for the music. I stayed for the community. But I left knowing Jesus in a way I never did before."
David — Concert attendee
"Playing alongside Catholics, Pentecostals, and Anglicans — people I'd never meet in church. That's been transformative."
Marcus — Choir member
"The arts world can be isolating. Here, I found a place where my faith and my gift belong together."
Elena — Violinist
"There's a sense of belonging because of shared passion, shared faith and shared purpose. A diverse group come together to a haven of music and not only blend in harmony but also in laughter and life experiences."
Alison — Choir member
