Emotional brand messages

 

VISION OF OUR FUTURE is the motto of the 18th FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS Berlin in the fall of 2022. This year, too, we want to create something unique in the combination of light and art, to look forward with confidence. And light connects. Light speaks all languages and sends people positive impulses and energy.

But innovation does not happen on its own, it needs partners and supporters. You are part of our vision, showing your brand or message as an impressive light art installation on landmarks, monuments or your own company building.

Good to know: During the 2021 festival period, a post of lights went out to the world via social media every 6 seconds. The reach of all media activities was around 857 million people.

Would you also like to become part of the official festival program as a partner or sponsor? We offer customized concepts and our all-round support for this. Write to us, send us your initial ideas and questions: partner@festival-of-lights.de.
