Against all odds and being faced with a difficult economy, the Naledi Theatre Awards have grown into the biggest and most anticipated Awards event in the country to recognise and honour excellence in South African theatre.

That being said, to find enough sponsorship and funding to sustain the Awards event throughout the year is an ongoing challenge.

We are also most grateful to our presenters and entertainers who have so willingly given of their glamour and talent for very low or no fees.

Headline Sponsor

Becoming a Headline Sponsor permanently links your brand to the Arts in general and Naledi in particular. 

There are immense  benefits to support of the Arts by Business and ongoing media exposure is worth millions of rands. Sponsorship of the Arts is also tax deductible! 

A Headline sponsor will be an integral part of the Awards Event and the brand will become synonymous with the prestigious Naledi Brand.

Supporting Partners

Supporting partners sponsor categories within the Naledi Theatre Awards and are as vitally important to our sustainability as a headline sponsor.  Our partners benefit from brand exposure and promotion in the lead-up to, and at the glamorous annual Awards Event.

In the past we have been most grateful to companies such as Auto & General Insurance, M-Net, Distell, DWR Distribution, Quest Engineering, Robe, Phillips, Prolyte Group, Sound Stylists, MA Lighting, Digico, le Maitre, Visual Frontier,  Absen Multi-media, and Alan Ford Productions for their kind support.

Media Partners

Naledi is immensely grateful to our existing media partners and those in the past who have promoted and supported the Naledi Theatre Awards. 

These include Artslink, Classic Feel Magazine, Mail & Guardian, Kyknet, Mzansi Magic and many others.

Sponsors in Kind

Naledi cannot exist without the generous and ongoing Sponsorship in Kind from the Joburg Theatre, the Lesedi Theatre, Splitbeam technical services and Visual Frontier as well as Distell for much appreciated wine 

Naledi’s mission is to showcase world class excellence in SA Theatre, but in exchange, we are grateful and thrilled to be able to feature some of the Best of the Best at each Awards Event.  Thank you to our presenters and entertainers!
