Current Sponsorship Opportunities
At Global Grooves, we don’t just create Carnival arts experiences — we ignite cultural celebration, inspire communities, and empower individuals to dream bigger. As the only Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) in Tameside, our mission is not only to preserve and innovate Carnival traditions but to use them as a force for social, cultural, and environmental transformation.
Partnering with Global Grooves is more than sponsorship. It’s an opportunity to align your brand with a visionary organisation that values creativity, sustainability, and inclusivity — principles at the heart of meaningful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
