Hartford Athletic News Release
HARTFORD, Conn. – Hartford Athletic announced today that Brignole Vineyards will return as a Premier Partner as part of a multi-year partnership agreement.
“Brignole Vineyards has not only been a dedicated partner for the past four years, but they’ve been our steadfast allies in navigating the unpredictable world of sports each season,” said Hartford Athletic CEO Nick Sakiewicz. “Their commitment to our Club has been second to none, and we are thrilled to welcome them back long-term.”
Since 2020, Brignole Vineyards has been one of Hartford Athletic’s most supportive partners. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Hartford Athletic was able to turn to the vineyard to provide creative ways for fans to still interact with the Club, including virtual wine tastings and socially distant watch parties. In 2021, they became the title sponsor of Trinity Health Stadium’s Brignole Vineyards Cantina, which sells their popular wine slushies. This year, Brignole Vineyards provided the perfect setting for the welcoming party of Hartford Athletic’s headline offseason player acquisition, Brazilian goalkeeper Renan Ribeiro. Fans got to meet Renan while mingling at the vineyard and enjoying local wine and food.
As part of the multi-year collaboration, Brignole Vineyards will continue to sponsor the stoppage time period at each match, be prominently displayed on Trinity Health Stadium’s brand new digital field boards, and return as the headline sponsor of the Cantina. In addition, they will serve as the presenting partner of the match on June 15th and will also host a discounted wine slushy night at a match to be announced.
Hartford Athletic play their next home match on Saturday, April 6th at 2:00pm at Trinity Health Stadium. Tickets are available online at hartfordathletic.com/tickets.
