Sponsors & Community Partners

2026 Sponsors

Each year, the festival is supported by sponsors and community partners who generously contribute to our mission. Through sponsorships and in-kind donations, patrons help us bring visitors to Benson for a weekend of celebration, collaboration, and connection. We are beyond grateful to the patrons who support the vision of the Benson Film Festival.

Be sure to visit our Maple Street Members during festival weekend to enjoy perks and discounts for festival pass holders!
