Bargate returns as local sponsor for Mayflower Theatre Pantomime

We are once again bringing festive cheer to Southampton as the proud local sponsor of this year’s highly anticipated Christmas pantomime at Mayflower Theatre, The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan.

We have committed to being local sponsors for the second consecutive year, having proudly supported last year’s pantomime – Jack and the Beanstalk. Some of our team and Mayflower’s Events and Sponsorship Manager, met the cast earlier this month at Mayflower Theatre’s official pantomime launch day.

Mark White, Managing Director of Bargate, said: “Pantomime is all about magic, laughter and the joy of never quite growing up, and that’s why it means so much to us to support Mayflower Theatre’s Christmas tradition. Our focus at Bargate is on creating homes and communities where memories can be made, just as this year’s The Pantomime Adventures of Peter Pan brings families together for an unforgettable adventure. We’re thrilled to continue our sponsorship and play our part in keeping this festive spirit alive for Southampton.”

Michael Ockwell, Chief Executive of Mayflower said “We are delighted that Bargate have once again invested in our magical pantomime spectacular which is produced by the world’s biggest producer Crossroads Pantomimes. Bargate’s generous sponsorship of this year’s production helps us to provide inspiring experiences to Southampton audiences and the next generation of theatregoers.”

The Mayflower’s pantomime sponsorship is just one of the many causes we proudly support across Hampshire. Bargate is equally committed to backing local community initiatives, grassroots clubs, and professional sports teams together with their affiliated charities. Through this ongoing support, we aim to strengthen the communities where we build, operate, and where we ourselves call home.
