Sponsorship Information

2026 Festival Sponsorship Program

The Maine Garlic Festival at Lake George Regional Park is more than a celebration of food — it’s a community event that brings together local farms, artisans, musicians, families, and visitors from across Maine. Sponsorships make this festival possible by keeping admission affordable while supporting the park’s mission of outdoor recreation, conservation, and community connection.
