Slingshot Sponsorship bags exclusive Snowboxx Festival deal

Slingshot Sponsorship, the full-service sponsorship agency founded by Class of 2014 Young Gun Jackie Fast, today announced it has been appointed as the exclusive sponsorship partner for leading ski festival Snowboxx.

Snowboxx, launched in 2013 by Mainstage Travel (itself a Startups 100 company), is a week-long ski and dance festival set to take place in Alp D’Huez, France, in March 2015.

The festival offers attendees skiing and snowboarding activities by day and live acts and DJ sets by night, as well as a host of other diversions.

Slingshot’s deal with Snowboxx will see it act as the sole sponsorship partner for the festival, boosting revenue by facilitating promotional and sponsorship deals with brands.

It is the latest business win for the fast-growing company, which has amassed a list of household-name clients and broken the £1m turnover barrier since Fast launched Slingshot in 2010.

Jackie Fast, founder and managing director of Slingshot, commented: “We were really impressed by the rate Snowboxx has expanded in two years.

The festival market is becoming ever more saturated, so it was really refreshing to come across a festival like Snowboxx, which offers a truly unique platform for its audience and brands.”
