The Quad City Symphony Orchestra is among the 20 longest-established, continuously operating orchestral associations in the U.S. and has been an integral component of our community for more than 100 years! Click to view a list of our current sponsors.
We are vital to the health and livability of the community, which supports employee recruitment and retention, and drives economic impact – the QCSO helps generate more than $3 million spent within our community and supports more than 200 jobs!
The QCSO reaches a highly sought after audience, which is well-educated, professional, affluent, and has an influential business and community leader presence. They understand our importance, and recognize, through their patronage, the commitment that our corporate sponsors make.
We have obtained this valuable audience, and more, through our performances. More than 50,000 people attend our programs every year, including diverse and underserved audiences through our free access programs, which many of our sponsors help to underwrite. In addition, our digital advertising and social media promotions reach more than one million people a year!
