Masquerade in ghent: Sponsorship Opportunities

There are many reasons why the GBA hosts events. One reason is to showcase what Ghent has to offer. By having larger scale, fun events in the heart of Ghent, it is the GBA’s goal to attract residents not only from Norfolk, but also from other parts of Hampton Roads. And, hopefully, these visitors will return to shop and dine in Ghent’s unique variety of retailers and restaurants. Restaurants directly benefit from the increase in traffic that night.

Masquerade in Ghent serves as one of the GBA’s annual fundraisers. The money raised from Masquerade in Ghent support initiatives of the Marketing Committee. These initiatives include community partnerships with local non-profit organizations, branding ads for Ghent, seasonal publications which highlight upcoming events in Ghent, and co-op advertisements featured in both The Compass and Veer Magazine.
