Partnerships
Bold Festival Review considers collaborations that are relevant to festival culture and useful to readers. Clear separation from editorial coverage matters: any paid or partner material is labelled so readers can recognise its nature.
Possible collaborations
We may consider clearly defined collaborations connected to festival programmes, places, customs, preparation or the work of making a gathering. Proposals should explain the subject, intended audience, proposed format and any financial or other material relationship. Relevance to our coverage and a clear reader benefit are central to consideration.
Partner placements
We accept clearly labelled partner placements where the subject fits the publication. A placement may appear across the site when agreed, but it remains distinct from independent editorial work and is identified as partner material wherever readers encounter it. Placement does not imply that Bold Festival Review endorses every claim, product or service described.
Editorial boundaries
Partners cannot buy favourable independent coverage or dictate editorial conclusions. We do not accept proposals that depend on disguising advertising as editorial writing, concealing a material relationship or making unsupported claims. To propose a collaboration, send its subject, format, audience and proposed terms through the Contact page.
A festival is made of many small choices
The programme matters, but so do the pauses, paths and shared customs around it. We look closely at these details to make festival culture easier to understand and enjoy.
