Sponsored partnerships

Martin Randall Travel works alongside a wide range of institutions across the areas we specialise in – concert halls, museums, orchestras, learned societies and festivals of history and ideas, among others.

Some of these relationships are broad and informal; others are more targeted and specific, reflecting a closer alignment of standards and purpose. Our support takes different forms, from sponsorship to shared events to charitable giving. We are honoured to partner with the following:

We support the conservation of London churches on our Culture Days. Many historic church buildings are extremely underfunded yet they are very often free to visit. We always give a donation to the churches we visit, regardless of whether it is expected.

Among these partnerships, a small number take the form of direct sponsorship – a public commitment of support to organisations whose work we believe deserves it, and whose audiences often overlap with our own.

Martin Randall Travel is delighted to be the exclusive cultural tour company sponsoring Wigmore Hall over the coming year, continuing a long association between our two organisations.

Opened in 1901 and celebrated for its intimate scale and acoustics, Wigmore Hall specialises in chamber music, early music, vocal music and song recitals, hosting over five hundred concerts each year, and has a long-established international reputation as a leading music venue, drawing the world's most sought-after soloists alongside exceptional young artists early in their careers.

Martin Randall Travel has held a partnership with the Royal Philharmonic Society (RPS) for a number of years. Founded in 1813 to promote orchestral and chamber music in London at a time when the capital had neither, the Society today runs a wide-ranging programme centred on composers and young musicians.

Through grants, commissions, mentoring and performance opportunities, it supports promising performers and composers at the career stages when they can most struggle – work that sits close to MRT's own belief in nurturing musical life beyond the concert hall.

In 2026, Martin Randall Travel sponsored a talk at the Chalke History Festival and took a stall at the event – a natural fit for a company built on bringing history to life through expert-led travel.

We're hopeful of continuing the partnership at future festivals.
