About Us
Who We Are
Life’s too short to have a boring weekend! That’s why Galaxy Events is focused on creating vibrant, engaging festivals that connect you to your community’s unique flavor. These events bring together gifted local artisans, world-class restaurants, and national recording artists for an experience that you’ll be talking about for weeks to come.
While we’re rooted in Central New York and have built our reputation with events like our Wine and Chocolate Festivals, Taste of Syracuse, Spooktacular Stroll, and Lights on the Lake – now we’re taking this show on the road.
Galaxy Events is expanding up and down the East Coast, including into North and South Carolina. But no matter what zip code we’re in, our focus remains the same: we’re bringing you opportunities to relax, try something new, and feel more connected to your area. If you see us in a city near you, come on out and join us for some good times!
Ideas For Sponsors
We can come up with customized sponsorship packages to help you reach your marketing goals! Below are some ideas that we’ve focused on in the past… these are just the beginning. Call us today to have us customize a package just for you!
-
Photo Booth
This interactive element worked to drive festival goers to a women’s health-oriented sponsor booth. On top of this being a fun “in-event” promotion, the client’s logo was on the top of every photo strip that was printed out… creating top of mind awareness after the event as well!
-
Cooking Demos
Our title sponsor used this creative sampling/demo to help showcase their credit union and provide an entertaining and education seminar on wine and chocolate pairings for festival goers.
-
Massage Therapists
Clients have hired massage therapists to do $1 per minute chair massages. This eye catching display helps to promote your booth while raising money for the select festival charity at the same time!
-
Paint Your Own Wine Glass
People love being creative! You can work with a local paint company to add this creative element to the festival. This memorable experience is sure to be a highlight of the evening.
-
Chocolate Fountain
What’s a wine and chocolate festival without more chocolate! Each person attending the festival receives a ticket to go through the chocolate fountain buffet. By tying your company into this element, you’ll be sure to put smiles on festival goers’ faces.
-
Wine Menu
We all have our favorite local wines! The wine menu showcases a map of the festival so that you can plan your way around the festival. Each wine menu features a coupon from our wine menu sponsor which will help drive traffic to your booth space or store location.
-
Designated Driver Sponsor
You don’t have to love wine to enjoy this festival! Our Designated Driver sponsors have provided bottles of water, coffee samples and more for our DD guests!
