The AFCM is a not-for-profit organisation relying on one third of our income from box office, one third from community donations and business sponsorship and we are supported by all three levels of government, contributing to our final third.

Your support is a contribution to the future of chamber music in Australia, to the development of Australian chamber musicians and the economy of a growing regional city.

Sponsorship is an invaluable way to support the Festival and ensure we continue to deliver a Festival that is enriching, educating and entertaining.

Your contributions go toward nurturing young and emerging artists through the Winterschool programme, commissioning new works, inspiring future generations of music lovers with education and outreach programmes, creating new artistic collaborations, recruiting international artists to perform for North Queensland audiences and essential opperating expenses.

In return, our sponsors enjoy great benefits, including branding and acknowledgement, corporate hospitality opportunities, tickets, and of course alignment with Australia's leading chamber music Festival.

There are a number of sponsorship opportunities including Corporate Sponsorship, Artist Sponsorship and Chefs in the North Dinner Sponsorship.

Corporate Sponsorship

The AFCM believes in working collaboratively with sponsors who recognise the value of being closely related to our much-loved Festival. The AFCM offers a range of sponsorship levels in cash or in-kind including Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze.

Artist Sponsorship

Artist Sponsorship is a wonderful way to support both the Artists and the AFCM. Festival Artists come from all over the world and all states of Australia and sponsorship helps to cover these costs. It is an opportunity to add a deeper level of engagement to your Festival experience.
Apart from masterful concert performances, our artists also provide invaluable mentoring, teaching and guidance to young emerging musicians through the Winterschool Programme.

Chefs in the North Dinner Sponsorship

In its 8th year, the Chefs in the North Dinner is the best food and wine event in North Queensland. There is no other event of this calibre that invites the best Chefs from across the country to work with the best Chefs in town. Serenaded by internationally renowned AFCM musicians, it truly is a feast of the senses.
Opportunities are available to Sponsor our host, local and visiting Chefs.
