Commercial Sponsorship & Advertising
The Marketing Team showcases 31 FSS events to a base community of 10,000 people, and provides marketing support to our Force Support Squadron GSU’s (Geographically Separated Units). In addition to Aviano’s base population, military personnel and civilians come from as far as Ghedi Air Base & the U.S. Army Garrison Vicenza to participate in our popular events. We also offer Commercial Sponsorship Opportunities to support our MWR (Morale, Welfare & Recreation) programs.
Sponsorship
The Aviano Air Base Commercial Sponsorship Program allows businesses to receive high-quality promotional exposure in exchange for financial assistance, product donations, or services supporting events at Aviano Air Base.
Commercial sponsorship is an excellent way for businesses and other organizations to market their message or products to more than 10,000 people, including military personnel, civilians, local nationals, and their families.
Sponsorship opportunities are available throughout the year in conjunction with monthly on-base events and other special activities. These events range in size and scope, providing engagement opportunities year-round, and can include travel, outdoor recreation, fitness, youth sports & programs, military club functions, golf, bowling, and more!
Our large annual events also offer the perfect opportunity to build your brand and engage new customers. These include Spring into Spring, the 4th of July Independence Day Celebration, Fall Fest, and Wyvern Wonderland.
Benefits to Commercial Sponsors
By sponsoring events and programs at Aviano Air Base, companies have an excellent opportunity to showcase their business and interact with potential customers face-to-face. Becoming a sponsor or advertiser on-base is one of the best ways to build brand awareness in our constantly-changing community.
We can custom-tailor your sponsorship to include a range of benefits that fit your budget. Contact us today to get started!
Please Note: All sponsorship benefits are dependent on contract approval and may not always be available. Contact the Marketing Department Commercial Sponsorship Coordinator for more information.
