Festival attendance averages between 10,000 and 12,000 festival-goers from around the Washington metropolitan region, so your visibililty extends beyond the local Takoma community.

Sponsors in our two top-tier categories (Carroll Avenue Title Sponsors and Takoma Patrons) will be listed in the Festival's advertising in local publications, increasing your visibility to many more thousands who see and hear the advertising prior to Festival day.

Who is Gilbert?
BF Gilbert founded Takoma Park and developed the twin neighborhoods along the DC-Maryland state line — Takoma Park, MD and Takoma, DC. He was an interesting guy! Learn more >>

And who is Roscoe?
A rooster. A beloved, wild, free-ranging rooster, now deceased, who lived behind the stores of Carroll Avenue during the 1990s. He, too, was an interesting character and became the city’s unofficial mascot. His bronze statue stands on a pedestal in Clocktower Square in downtown Takoma Park.   Learn more >>
