Why Sponsor the Ohio Lighting Mini?
Your Partnership Makes It All Possible
Every sponsorship helps us create a better experience for the lighting community—from bringing in knowledgeable presenters and providing quality educational sessions to creating opportunities for attendees to meet vendors, make connections, and discover new ideas.
We want our sponsors to feel like partners in the event, not just companies that purchased advertising
Reach the Right Audience
Get your brand in front of people who are actively building, upgrading, and investing in their Christmas light displays.
Build Real Relationships
Meet your customers face-to-face, answer questions, demonstrate products, and become a familiar name in the lighting community.
Support the Hobby
Help us create an event where lighting enthusiasts can learn new skills, discover technology, share ideas, and build better displays.
Be Part of the Experience
Your company can become part of the event—not just another logo on a banner.
