Plans are well underway for next years Humber Street Sesh - as organisers are on the lookout for sponsorships to help finance the flagship event.

Plans were unveiled at a special presentation evening for potential investors. The event has grown exponentially since its conception in 2013 - and has become one of the biggest local events in Hull. Humber Street Sesh was recognised at this years REYTA's as Remarkable Tourism Event of the Year 2024.

With ambition to keep the festival expanding - organisers are on the look out for financial partners and sponsors to help sustain the festival.

Organisers said "Supporting Sesh means more than a barrier on a stage: you're contributing to art and culture that positively impacts people and businesses in the city and further afield."

While still shining a light on local talent, organisers also plan to infuse more industry bands into the event - which is believed to help stimulate music tourism to Hull, and further boost the local economy. Last year, the festival raised £1,061,118 in social value.

Owner of Minerva, Taphouse and Cuban Petes, Lee Kirman said, "Sesh is a real asset to the Fruit Market area and Hull and helps to promote our area. The festival has a huge impact on our three bars, one being a boost to profits and the other the vibe of the festival in the lead up to the event. Staff treat it as a day out which is great for our team."

Sponsorship opportunities ranges from £1,000 to £25,000. More information can be found by contacting Elise@seshevents.co.uk.
