Chairman's Circle
The Chairman’s Circle is a unique group of leading Adelaide Festival supporters whose vision and direct engagement has an immediate and measurable impact on the Festival’s program each year.
As a collective, The Chairman’s Circle annual investment supports one prestigious work in the Festival program which is exclusive to the Adelaide Festival. These sponsored, award-winning works include The James Plays, Saul, Hamlet, The Magic Flute, Requiem, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, The Golden Cockerel, Messa de Requiem, The Nightingale & Other Fables and Innocence.
An annual investment of $10,000 is requested to join The Chairman’s Circle, of which $8,000 is a tax-deductible donation. Chairman’s Circle members receive ticketing and exclusive benefits to the value of $2,000.
All members are personally acknowledged in the Festival Guide, online and in the program for the supported event (unless anonymity is requested).
