Real feedback from brands that have activated at Ventures Endurance locations

Hosting a wetsuit brand activation at our ocean swim portion was perfect because it aligned naturally with our audience's needs. The energy from the sampling booth got people excited, our community felt valued, and we built a genuine relationship with a sponsor who now supports us year-round. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

Pacific Coast Triathlon Series

Brand Partner

We partnered with a sports nutrition brand for sampling at our annual endurance festival and were blown away by the turnout. The activation brought in hundreds of new contacts to our email list, and participants told us the free samples made their race day experience feel more premium. It's become one of our most requested vendor partnerships.

Brand Partner

The brand activation platform connected us with a hydration company that sampled at our 50K event, and honestly, it solved a major pain point—our runners had better access to products they actually wanted to try before race day. Plus, the vendor fees helped offset our event costs during a tight budget year.
