Grand Old Fourth Sponsorship Applications are OPEN
The Grand Old Fourth of July festival is a beloved Bainbridge Island tradition dating back almost sixty years. It is the largest single-day event on the island, drawing more than 15,000 attendees each year. Sponsorship provides an outstanding opportunity to build brand awareness for your business and to demonstrate a sustaining investment in the Bainbridge Island community.
The 2026 Grand Old Fourth festival is sure to be one for the ages with the 4th falling on a Saturday and the World Cup taking place in Seattle on either side of the festival (July 1 and July 6). We are expecting record attendance, with estimates as high as 25,000 people. Your sponsorship investment will help ensure the event is safe, locally staffed, free, and LOADS OF FUN for this record turnout!
Reach out to our Executive Director, Lindsay Browning for more information!
