Local Business Collaborators

Let us turn a slow day into a good day

We tell our community to go and spend money with you. Thousands of people, all local to where we run our shows, hearing your name for weeks.

  • Your name in front of local fans for weeks
  • We design and deliver your signage
  • A giveaway day that brings people in
  • No fee to take part
Read moreShow less

We pick a day about a week before the show. On that day anyone who buys something from you gets a free weekend pass, so our community has a reason to walk through your door rather than past it.

We design the table tents, flyers and posters, handle the printing, and get them to you. Your business is featured as a KimoKawaii community collaborator throughout.

After the giveaway, keep the signage up through the KimoKawaii weekend and stay connected to the excitement.

We are looking for restaurants and shops with real daily foot traffic. No fee to take part. Most collaborators cover the print cost, and we pass on exactly what the printer charges.
