2026 Flower Basket Sponsorship

Bring Downtown Bend to Life—One Flower Basket at a Time

Sponsor a downtown flower basket and showcase your business while helping keep Bend vibrant, welcoming, and beautiful all season long.

When you sponsor a basket, you’re not just advertising—you’re investing in the experience that keeps locals and visitors coming back.
