Trico Homes signs extension as GlobalFest sponsor
There’s more reason to celebrate GlobalFest this year, as Trico Homes announced the renewal of its title sponsorship of the annual fireworks extravaganza at Elliston Park in the southeast.
Trico Homes joined GlobalFest in 2005 as the sponsor of “Hong Kong Night”, and in 2006 entered their first year as a presenting partner for the Festival. GlobalFest is now proud to announce the renewal of the award winning home builders’ title sponsorship of the Trico Homes International Fireworks Festival until 2014.
Trico Homes’ mission is to “Enhance our Customers Lives while Enriching the Community,” a mandate that is very closely aligned with GlobalFest’s core value of producing an inclusive multi-cultural festival and celebrating the unique cultures found in Calgary. This partnership over the past four years has proven extremely successful, largely due to Trico’s commitment to “Embracing Multi-Culturalism and Celebrating Diversity.”
This sponsorship renewal goes hand in hand with Trico’s Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives and belief that it is their role to support the communities in which they build. As Richard Gotfried, Trico Vice President of Corporate and Community Relations, puts it, they “are thrilled to be a part of bringing world-class pyromusical entertainment to Calgary for the enjoyment of Festival Guests of all ages!”
GlobalFest is a not-for-profit society dedicated to celebrating and showcasing Calgary’s cultural diversity and artistic excellence within our communities locally and across the globe. We are committed to producing an inclusive, world-class, multi-faceted arts and cultural festival that will enhance Alberta’s reputation as a truly international destination.
