Find the right events and teams to sponsor
Browse verified sponsorship opportunities across the UK. Connect directly with rights holders. Free to join, with a 10% fee only when a deal is agreed.
Event sponsorship that actually works
Big sponsorship platforms focus on major leagues and national events. That's great if you have a seven-figure budget. But if you're a local business, regional brand, or growing company looking for authentic connections with real audiences, those platforms don't serve you.
Spontzer is built for brands that want to sponsor grassroots sports, local events, community venues, emerging artists, and regional properties. The opportunities that connect with engaged audiences in specific locations.
How it works for brands
Create a free profile
Tell us about your brand, target audience, and what you're looking for in a sponsorship. Takes 10 minutes and gives you full access to browse opportunities.
Browse and filter
Search by location, audience size, industry, and budget. Every listing includes verified audience data, demographics, and what the property can offer sponsors.
Make contact directly
When you find a good fit, message the rights holder directly through the platform. No agencies, no middlemen. Just you and the decision-maker.
We support the negotiation
We can offer guidance on deal structure, pricing and contract terms, so the agreement works for your brand and for the rights holder.
Pay only when a deal is agreed
Joining, browsing, searching and making contact are all free. When you agree a deal, a 10% success fee is added to the agreed price, so factor it into your budget.

Music and artist sponsorship
Live music is one of the few environments where audiences are genuinely engaged, present, and sharing an experience together. Sponsoring an artist or band gives your brand access to that environment at a price point that works for a wide range of budgets.
Through Spontzer you can browse music sponsorship opportunities from emerging and independent UK artists. Artists list what they are offering, who their audience is, and what they are looking for in a partner. You find the right fit without going through an agency.
- Tour and live show sponsorship across multiple cities and venues
- Album and release campaign integration
- Brand ambassador partnerships over a defined period
- Music video sponsorship with product placement and usage rights
- Gear and equipment endorsement through credible independent artists
Authentic cultural association
Being attached to a credible artist in your target genre gives your brand a dimension that conventional advertising cannot manufacture. Fans pay attention to who their favourite artists work with.
Cost-efficient audience access
Emerging artists are significantly cheaper to sponsor than established names, and often offer better value because their audiences are tightly defined and genuinely loyal.
Content and activation
A music partnership generates natural content. Live footage, behind-the-scenes access, social collaboration, product integration. Assets you can use across your own marketing.
Long-term upside
Backing an artist before they break is a legitimate commercial strategy. If they grow, your association grows with them, and you built it before it was obvious.
Trusted by brands across the UK
Brands across the UK use Spontzer to find authentic, local sponsorship opportunities.
"We wanted to sponsor local sports teams but didn't know where to start. Spontzer made it easy to find clubs in our area, see their audience data, and negotiate fair deals. We're now sponsoring three teams and seeing real brand awareness in our community."
"As a craft brewery, we need local visibility. Spontzer connected us with food festivals and community events that were perfect for our brand. The direct contact with organisers meant we could customise packages to fit our budget and goals."
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to use Spontzer?
Creating a profile and browsing opportunities is completely free. You can search, filter, and contact as many properties as you want at no cost. When you agree a deal through Spontzer, we add a 10% success fee on top of the price agreed with the rights holder. For example, a £5,000 deal costs £5,500 in total, and the rights holder receives the full £5,000.
How do I know the listings are legitimate?
We manually verify every property before it goes live. We check that the organisation exists, confirm audience numbers are realistic, and ensure contact details are valid. Listings that do not meet our standards are not published.
Can I negotiate custom packages?
Absolutely. The packages listed are starting points. Most rights holders are happy to customise based on your specific needs and budget. You're dealing directly with decision-makers, so there's flexibility.
What types of sponsorship opportunities are available?
Events (festivals, conferences, sports events), sports teams (grassroots to semi-pro), venues (stadiums, facilities, community spaces), media properties (podcasts, newsletters, publications), and musicians and bands. We focus on opportunities that big platforms ignore.
How long does it take to close a deal?
It varies. Some brands connect with a property and close a deal within a week. Others take a few months to negotiate and finalise terms. The platform makes the process faster by connecting you directly with decision-makers.
Do you help with contract terms?
Yes. Our team can provide guidance on standard contract terms, what to include in agreements, and common pitfalls to avoid. We want both sides to be happy with the outcome.
