The 84th Annual Atlanta Dogwood Festival is excited to announce that Bank of America has joined the festival as presenting sponsor. Bank of America has also signed on to present the award-winning International Stage.

“The Atlanta Dogwood Festival has welcomed the local community and visitors to the city for more than eight decades,” said Brian Hill, festival executive director. “We are only able to put on this exciting three-day event and offer free admission because of the support of sponsors. The festival board and I are thrilled to welcome Bank of America as the presenting sponsor for this year’s festival and appreciate the company’s commitment to the arts and our multicultural Atlanta communities.”

Each spring, the Atlanta Dogwood Festival returns to Piedmont Park in Midtown, welcoming tens of thousands of attendees each day. Fine art, live entertainment, family activities and blooming dogwood trees have made the festival an annual favorite for locals and visitors alike. The city’s largest and longest-running fine arts festival and the third oldest in the country, the 84th-annual festival is expected to draw 200,000+ attendees.

“At Bank of America, we believe in the power of the arts to help economies thrive, educate and enrich societies, and create greater cultural understanding,” said Wendy Stewart, Atlanta market president for Bank of America. “Our commitment to the arts will expand this year as we partner with one of the most iconic festivals in Atlanta, the Dogwood Festival.”
