How Much Does It Cost to Sponsor a Marathon?
Quick answer: The cost of sponsoring the St. Pete Marathon depends on the level of visibility and benefits your business wants, and we offer multiple tiers to fit different budgets. Rather than list pricing here, we walk every prospective sponsor through the current tiers directly so you get an accurate, up to date breakdown for your business.
- Key Takeaways
- Sponsorship pricing varies by tier and the visibility that comes with it.
- In kind sponsorship is available as an alternative to a monetary commitment.
- Founding partner sponsorships are available now, for a limited time.
- Reach out directly for current pricing and available tiers.
Why We Do Not List Pricing Publicly
Sponsorship tiers and benefits are still being finalized as we build toward our inaugural race, and the best way to make sure you get accurate information is a direct conversation. This also lets us tailor the conversation to what your business actually wants, whether that is broad visibility, a specific placement, or a founding partner role.
What Influences the Cost
Generally speaking, sponsorship pricing scales with visibility and placement. A higher tier typically includes more prominent logo placement, more mentions across race materials, and closer association with the event itself. Lower tiers still provide real, meaningful visibility at a smaller commitment.
Alternatives to a Monetary Commitment
If a straight dollar amount does not fit your business right now, in kind sponsorship is a real option. We need water, medical support, timing equipment, barricades, port a potties, and printing services. See the full breakdown in In Kind Sponsorship: What the St. Pete Marathon Actually Needs.
The Founding Partner Advantage
Founding partner sponsorships are available now, for a limited time, ahead of the inaugural race. This is not a standard ongoing tier. It is a one time opportunity to be part of the race from its very first year.
