Our Sponsors Archive

As in previous years we have been pledged sponsorship from some amazing local companies.  Without their sponsorship it would not be possible to stage our numerous events during the Festival Fortnight or produce our magazine and deliver it free to all Bathgate residential addresses (where possible).  We are very grateful and hope these sponsorships continue for years to come.

SIBCAS – The main arena sponsor

SiBCAS has in excess of 45 years’ experience in the manufacture and rental of modular buildings and portable site cabins. It wasn’t until this year I noticed how often you see their buildings and not just in West Lothian. SiBCAS have always been a great support in supplying containers but this year they have also sponsored the whole of the main arena for acts at the Procession Day Festival.

The Hive – Children’s Entertainment Sponsor

We have a spectacular play frame for all the family to enjoy, with a dedicated baby and toddler area which you can explore with your child.

Bigger kids will love climbing the mouse hole higher to the bee tube where you can give the grown-ups a cheeky wave, before whizzing down our buzzy slide.

Our fantastic play frame also includes a sports court with an interactive electronic sports wall.

Adults can watch their children in active play whilst relaxing and enjoy good quality hot drinks and delicious homemade food from the onsite café.
