Sponsors for the 2008 Sunset Strip Music Festival included Ticketmaster, Virgin America, Red Bull Music Academy, Vitamin Water, Indie 103.1, Metromix, City of West Hollywood, The Standard, Signature Creative, London West Hollywood, West Hollywood Marketing & Visitors Bureau and 944 Magazine.
The first-ever SSMF was a tremendous success for participating venues, artists and sponsors. We will continue to grow for the second annual festival and aim to make it even more spectacular. The goal for the second annual festival is to provide an outdoor area that will create a true festival atmosphere as well as provide a stage for a headlining artist.
The outdoor area will allow more businesses to participate and it will generate more space for performances and increased opportunities for sponsors. The second year will also feature a tribute event honoring individuals who influenced the Sunset Strip, cocktail parties and three nights of unforgettable live music performances.
