Wendy’s is proud to Sponsor the 2024 Festival of Bands presented by the University of Oregon. Come join the fun on November 2nd of watching talented high school marching bands compete in a college stadium. This Wendy’s sponsorship is just one of many We Love Band events, an initiative that is a proven success in supporting and providing opportunities for high school bands in the Pacific Northwest.
As a sponsor of the Festival of Bands, Wendy’s provides monetary support as well as advertising for the festival. In addition to Wendy’s support for the event, the talented musicians will be provided with a We Love Band item such as a water bottle, bucket hat, or key tag coupon. Band Directors will receive a bag of custom swag items.
The goal of the We Love Band initiative is to monetarily support and provide opportunities to high school musicians. The Festival of Bands provides the extraordinary opportunity of playing in a college stadium for high school marching bands. One of Wendy’s core values is to Give Something Back, which for the Festival of Bands, is expressed through the gifts of music and opportunity. We Love Band was founded in 2023 by Tannor Glumbik, President’s EA & Marketing Manager, Wenspok Companies. Tannor is a former marching band musician and carries on his band passion through his position with the Wendy’s franchisee. To learn more about Wendy’s band sponsorships, visit www.weloveband.com.
The We Love Band opportunities will be carried out at other band events across the Pacific Northwest as well. Tickets for the Festival can be purchased at the gate or in advance via the University of Oregon Ticket Office. Come join the Wendy’s team to experience the Festival of Bands on Saturday, November 2nd at Autzen Stadium.
To wrap up the 2024 season of the We Love Band program, Wendy's proudly sponsored the Festival of Bands presented by University of Oregon. This marching band event held at Autzen Stadium on 11/2/24, was the championships for the 3A and 4A divisions of fall marching band in the Northwest Association for Performing Arts circuit. In addition to the Wendy's booth and prize wheel distributing free Wendy's coupons for iconic menu items such as the Dave's Single and Frosty, the Wendy's team provided custom We Love Band swag – including backpacks, water bottles, and bucket hats – to the band directors, NWAPA judges, and UO staff participating in this year's Festival of Bands. For all of the amazing and talented student musicians, the Wendy's team distributed this year's edition of the Band Key Tag: a key tag awarding the holder a free small Frosty with all purchases through the end on the 2024/2025 academic school year. While this year's We Love Band program comes to a close, the Wendy's team is excited for 2025's roster of sponsorships and partnerships continuing the We Love Band program into its third year.
