BRM Extends Headline Sponsorship of Annual Chesterfield Festival of Cricket
We’re delighted to announce that we will once again be the headline sponsors of the annual Chesterfield Festival of Cricket.
The BRM Chesterfield Festival of Cricket is set to take place from Sunday 30 June – Sunday 7 July at Queens Park in Chesterfield.
The five-day event will host both its traditional County Championship cricket with Derbyshire taking on Yorkshire as well as the hugely anticipated Vitality Blast which will see Derbyshire Falcons play Yorkshire Vikings.
The annual festival, which is open to people of all ages to attend, is set to be another sell-out with last year’s ticket sales reaching record numbers welcoming more than 5,000 people to the town.
This year’s festival promises to be bigger than ever with Derbyshire hosting Yorkshire for four days and Mickey Arthur’s Derbyshire Falcons side looking to continue their long unbeaten streak against local rivals Yorkshire Vikings in the Vitality Blast Twenty20.
Rob Woodhead, BRM’s Executive Director, said:
“We are delighted to yet again be headline sponsors of the Chesterfield Festival of Cricket. The event is one of the town’s most prestigious of the year, and we’re so proud to be involved.
“The firm has been headline sponsor of the festival since 2019 and has sponsored the T20 matchday since 2013.
“The 2024 festival is looking like it will be another sell-out event, with fans from across the county attending for a week of cricket and local rivalry.
“It’s also great to see the launch of the £49 festival pass which will enable people to gain access to all days of cricket.
“Everyone at the firm is very much looking forward to the event which starts at the end of the month.”
Jimmy Drew, Commercial Manager at Derbyshire County Cricket Club, said:
“It’s great to have BRM on board again for our annual festival of cricket. BRM is deep rooted within Chesterfield so it’s great to partner with an organisation who understands the importance of hosting such a big sporting event right in the heart of Chesterfield.
“The festival is huge for the town and it’s fantastic we’re on course for another sell-out year. We’ll not only enjoy four days of county cricket but will also find out if the Derbyshire Falcons can continue their five-year winning streak!”
