In order to help defray the high cost of putting on Carnival, the committee solicits sponsorship from the business community. Until the downturn of the economy, the special events industry had experienced an ever increasing source of revenues from sponsors who found it advantageous to promote their products or services during these events.

The St. Thomas Carnival is an ideal occasion for businesses to provide sponsorship. It has been estimated that Carnival activities generate approximately $65 millions annually for the community and when a community prospers, so do the companies which operate within that community.

The following is a list of sponsors of the 2009 St. Thomas Carnival. We look forward to their continued support as well as your support of these sponsors.
