The Daily Telegraph calls the Festival ‘one of the great achievements of British life'. This achievement is only possible thanks to the generosity of our corporate partners, foreign government supporters, trusts and foundations and our Friends, Patrons and Benefactors, whose involvement enables us to maintain the ambition, scale and quality of the world's greatest arts festival. On behalf of our audiences and artists, we thank our Festival 2010 supporters below for the crucial role they are playing in Festival 2010.
