A LATS & ATTS Sponsorship Opportunity

Who wants to help us party?

Twice as hard, again.

If you were at the Annapolis Sailboat Show last year, then you already know. Our section of the marina was packed shoulder to shoulder with sailors, cruisers, marine professionals, and people ready to have a good time. Once the parties started, it only got crazier.

This year, we’re doing it all again, twice. As a sponsor, your brand will be placed right in the middle of the action; in front of the people attending, celebrating, taking photos, entering giveaways, and talking about the parties long after the show is over.

Limited sponsorship opportunities are available.

The Opportunity

Your brand in the middle of the most talked-about part of the show

The Latitudes & Attitudes Cruiser’s Corner became one of the busiest and most energetic areas of the Annapolis Sailboat Show. Throughout the show, attendees gathered at our booth to meet fellow cruisers, discover new brands, enjoy live entertainment, and take part in our daily events.

During the Cruiser Parties, that energy increases even more. The area fills with sailors, boat owners, industry professionals, subscribers, exhibitors, and guests looking to connect and celebrate.

Sponsorship gives your company the opportunity to become part of that experience instead of simply advertising around it.

Your brand is not placed on the sidelines. It becomes part of the event people came to experience.

WHY SPONSOR

More than event visibility

Each sponsorship is designed to extend your brand beyond the parties themselves. Sponsors receive exposure before attendees arrive, throughout the show, and after the event ends.

BEFORE THE SHOW

Build recognition before attendees ever reach Annapolis through party promotions, email campaigns, newsletter exposure, social media, RSVP-page placement, and giveaway promotion

During the Show

Place your brand inside a highly attended, high-energy environment where sailors, cruisers, marine professionals, and potential customers are actively gathering and engaging.

AFTER THE SHOW

Continue the conversation through recap coverage, sponsor recognition, social media, email exposure, and giveaway lead delivery.

GIVEAWAYS

Have an item to give away?

Every sponsor may include one giveaway.

Giveaways have been part of our Annapolis experience for years and consistently generate strong engagement. Previous campaigns have typically produced more than 100 entries per product. This year, giveaways will receive even more promotion before and during the show — creating additional visibility and measurable lead-generation value for participating sponsors.

Dedicated Giveaway Page

Each giveaway item receives its own landing page featuring the product image, product details, sponsor information, entry form, and a link back to your website.

Pre-Show Promotion

Giveaways are promoted through dedicated email campaigns, newsletter placements, social media, and party and show-related communications.

On-Site Promotion

At the Annapolis Sailboat Show, giveaway products are promoted through printed signage, product posters, QR codes, booth displays, and party promotion.

Lead Collection

Entrants submit name and email, opting in to receive communications from both Latitudes & Attitudes and the sponsoring company

Leads Delivered

After the show, all collected giveaway leads are sent directly to the sponsoring company for immediate follow-up.

Sponsor Selects the Winner

The sponsoring company selects the giveaway winner, contacts them directly, and ships or mails the prize.

Keep your brand in hand all night long. Our custom beer cups become one of the most photographed and carried items at the party, creating repeated impressions among hundreds of sailors, cruisers, and marine professionals.

ANNAPOLIS RECAP ARTICLE + QUARTER-PAGE AD
