Sponsorship Opportunities

Without the commitment and continuing community support of its Sponsors, the EAST COBBER Parade & Festival could not successfully deliver East Cobb’s largest community-wide event. With more than 10,000 people lining the streets of Johnson Ferry Road, 2,000+ Parade participants and hundreds of volunteers as well as households watching the Parade on Cobb County’s TV23, the EAST COBBER Parade is definitely an exciting community event for associations, businesses, corporations, levels of government and community groups to support.

Sponsorships are available to allow interested parties to participate. Each level of participation, Corporate Sponsor ($4,000), and Parade Patron ($300) has exciting projects to support with generous associated benefits. All Sponsor partnerships will be customized to best satisfy your corporate needs.

Sponsorship packages can also be customized to meet the needs of your organization’s employee engagement programs and the requirements of your community investment goals.

The EAST COBBER Parade is honored to be working with all its major Sponsors from last year and looks forward to welcoming you into the growing EAST COBBER Parade’s family of supporters!

Thank you for showing your community spirit by helping us bring smiles, memories and civic pride to East Cobb residents!

Parade Patron

In response to many requests, the EAST COBBER offers another level of sponsorship to businesses interested in building goodwill and boosting local exposure with the East Cobb community. As a Parade Patron of the annual EAST COBBER Parade & Festival, the business is granted permission to participate in the Parade only.

The parade stages at the Mt. Bethel Elementary School’s parking lot, steps off at 10 AM and ends at the Fountains of Olde Towne shopping center at approximately 11:45 am. Crowds line Johnson Ferry Road early to get the best view. Kids of all ages enjoy the floats, high school marching bands, and vintage cars as they march down the parade path. East Cobb schools honor their principals and/or their “Teachers-of-the-Year”.

The EAST COBBER Parade has earned the nickname “The Candy Parade” because just about every entry throws candy to the crowd. The EAST COBBER appreciates the superb talents of the Cobb County Government’s Communications Department staff who produce the COBB TV23 broadcast of the EAST COBBER Parade. Over 2,000 parade participants representing 82 different groups marched down Johnson Ferry Road last year!
