Entertainer Badges
From the 2021 Season
Entertainer Badges let Festival Patrons know if they are interacting with an official Entertainer. Every season the campaign design begins and is influenced by the Entertainer Badge design. This design is also produced on seasonal souvenir collectables such as mugs, beer steins, jackets, hoodies, t-shirts, totes, koozies, iron-ons, posters and more.

For the local cast of performers called SAPA (Scarborough Academy of Performing Arts) it is an annual tradition, after months of classes and rehearsals, for the Director to present each cast-member with this badge before opening. It is a rite of passage for new performers (Saplings) and the Entertainers wear it proudly for the season, often building a collection for all the years they have performed.
