Become a Horn in the West™ Sponsor today!

Since 1952, Horn in the West has brought the story of the Southern Appalachian frontier to life at the Daniel Boone Amphitheater in Boone, NC. Now in its 74th season, it is the third oldest outdoor drama in the nation and the only long-running production focused on the American Revolution. For over seven decades, community support has kept this cornerstone of Boone's cultural identity on the stage.

A Historic Season for a Historic Year

In 2026, the nation marks America 250, the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Horn in the West and Hickory Ridge History Museum are uniquely positioned to be part of that conversation, telling the stories of the mountain settlers, soldiers, and families who fought for independence right here in the Southern backcountry.

Your sponsorship helps keep that story alive and in front of the audiences who need to hear it.

Why Sponsor?

When you sponsor Horn in the West, you align your business or organization with one of North Carolina's longest-running cultural attractions and one of the region's most meaningful America 250 destinations. Sponsorship benefits include visibility at live performances, recognition across our marketing channels, presence at Hickory Ridge History Museum events, and personalized engagement with an audience that values history, education, and community.

Beyond the Stage

Your support also funds educational programming at Hickory Ridge History Museum. From school group field trips to public living history events, the museum brings early American life to thousands of visitors each year, connecting families, students, and tourists to the roots of our region.
