Come to the Water – An evening of dance in High Wycombe
Dew Dance is a Buckinghamshire-based contemporary dance company creating bold, engaging, and high-quality work for communities, audiences, and partners. Our flagship event this season, Come to the Water, is an evening of dance and live performance that brings together local artists, audiences, and charities in celebration of creativity and community.
We are working with local charities to ensure the event is accessible to all. As part of this, we are allocating free tickets to charity clients who might not otherwise have the opportunity to attend a performance like this. By sponsoring us, you are helping make it possible for people from all walks of life to experience the power and joy of live dance.
As a sponsor, your brand will be visible across all promotional materials, on the night itself, and in our digital marketing, ensuring you are recognised not only as a supporter of the arts but also as an advocate for social good. Sponsorship packages can be tailored to suit your needs — whether that’s brand visibility, community impact, or employee engagement opportunities.
Come to the Water offers a unique platform where creativity meets community spirit. Together, we can amplify your brand, showcase your values, and create a lasting impact through the power of dance and partnership.
Target Audience
Our event appeals to a broad cross-section of the local community in High Wycombe and nearby towns such as Beaconsfield and Marlow. Audiences typically range from 25–65 years old, including families, young professionals and older arts supporters.
Demographically, our audience is diverse and community-minded, with strong representation from ABC1 groups — people who are educated, socially engaged, and have disposable income to spend on cultural experiences. We also partner with local charities, which means some of our audience includes people who may not usually have access to the arts.
They are social, curious, and engaged, with interests in theatre, dance, live music, and community events. Our fans value not only high-quality performance but also the social impact of the arts — making them especially receptive to partners who share values of creativity, inclusivity and local pride.
Key Dates and Timings
Come to the Water premieres on Wednesday November 12th at the Wycombe Swan Old Town Hall. Sponsorships are required by 1 November 2025.
