Thanks for supporting Nantwich Roots. We know you love live music and have supported shows over the years.

By doing so you are already support of young musicians, venues, technicians, booking agents, crew, and helping to keep live music in the UK alive at Grassroots level… So thanks for that.

As you may know we've now been staging events, independently, in Nantwich, for over 15 years. And as you probably know, in that time the climate has become far tougher.

You'll have read stories about festivals going bankrupt - in the last year over 100 UK festivals have thrown in the towel, including long time staples of the festival calendar.

The costs of staging shows has risen astronomically, and our event - like many others - have, to be honest, come under threat.

We want to continue…

…continue bringing musical legends to this town, and giving opportunities to young emerging artists. Without these opportunities the scene that we love, and that's part of the UKs rich heritage, is under threat. We support emerging artists, give them chances to share stages with major acts and nurture their careers

But to continue we're now at a point where we need help.

Hence this message.  We are always looking for sponsors - businesses yes, but also people like you, who have supported us by attending events and who may be able to go a bit further.

For local businesses we've created what we've called 'gold' & silver sponsorship packages.

But we're also seeking smaller LEVELS OF SUPPORT,   from individuals or families who want to see us continue.

So we're NOW offering a 'bronze' sponsor opportunity and a 'friends of the festival' PACKAGE, in order for people to be able to support us.
