SPONSORS | PRESENTING | VENDORS | VOLUNTEER
Our sponsors are treasured partners, without whom the festival would not be possible. We love to craft individualized sponsorships that optimally leverage their sponsorship dollars.
If you feel called on and aligned with the festival, we’ll certainly be able to create the mutually-supportive sponsorship that amplifies both of our business’ missions.

Presenting at the Festival
Bend Yoga Festival is a highly curated event. We receive far more presentation inquiries than we can accommodate, and we’re intentional about how we build each year’s lineup.
Rather than booking presenters for promotional leverage or as part of a sponsorship, we prioritize ongoing relationships within the regional yoga community.
For that reason, we’ve created the Studio Circle — a way to build connection over time. It’s not a direct pathway to presenting. It’s an opportunity for us to be in relationship with studios and teachers whose values align with the spirit of the festival.
As we thoughtfully invite future presenters, those relationships matter.
If you’re interested in being in community with us and learning more about how we collaborate across the Pacific Northwest, we invite you to explore the Studio Circle.
We’re grateful for the depth of talent in our region and look forward to building something meaningful together.
VENDORS | The Liminal Library
A Reimagined Vendor Experience
Rather than a traditional vendor marketplace, BYF curates a smaller, more interactive and thoughtfully integrated experience.
We prioritize offerings that meaningfully enhance the attendee experience — through conversation, education, artistry, or hands-on engagement — rather than rows of transactional booths.
Vendor spaces within the Liminal Lounge (scheduled Thursday and Friday evening) are intentionally limited. A small number of additional opportunities exist for aligned integrations within festival programming.
If you have an idea that feels experiential, collaborative, and aligned with the spirit of the festival, we’d love to hear from you.
