Providing Food or Entertainment
The merchants, organizations and business owners of Steiner Ranch are pleased to announce the fourth annual Steiner Ranch Concert in the Park Summer 2011 event in celebration of the families and community friends which make Steiner Ranch an excellent neighborhood to live and work.
Residents are invited to spend an afternoon with the entire family and enjoy fun and games, concessions, local business exhibits, and get their groove on with the sounds of live local music we’ve come to expect from living in Austin, the Live Music Capital of the World!
Please Note: Vendors are limited exclusively to qualified Steiner-based business owners, Steiner-based businesses and Four Points-area organizations.
Why Exhibit?
As one of the fastest-growing events in the community, Steiner Ranch Concert in the Park is an excellent opportunity to associate a face with your organization and to present your offerings to residents of the Steiner Ranch community.
As an event sponsor and vendor, you will have access to approximately 5,000 residents expected to attend the event, as well as potential visibility among the community’s 4,000 households through the various event promotions planned within the neighborhood.
More than 60 Steiner-based businesses and organizations have showcased their offerings at previous concerts and organizations like the Austin Toros basketball team and the Steiner Ranch HOA have already agreed to sponsor this year’s event.
About Steiner Ranch Concert in the Park
The annual event series was founded in 2008 to enable Steiner-based businesses, Steiner-based business owners and Four Points area businesses and organizations to give back to local residents. Organized entirely by local volunteers, the Steiner Ranch Concert in the Park offers an opportunity for residents to have a great time together while learning more about the businesses and organizations residing in the community.
Each year there is also a focus on a local charity or effort in need of community support. This has included the Capital Area Food Bank and a trust fund to assist a local student with a chronic medical condition.
Featured Entertainment
Live music by Red Alert and a local high school band. Additional entertainment includes balloon artists, inflatable jumpers, water activities, rock climbing wall, Games2U, face painting and more!
Supporting Our Community
Proceeds from the event to benefit Hand to Hold and Capital Area Food Bank.
