The ACT Event Fund plays an active role in stimulating and fostering positive economic, social, and community outcomes for the Canberra region through the events sector. The ACT Government is inviting applications to the ACT Event Fund 2022. 

The ACT Event fund 2022 has two funding categories – Community Event Funding and Event Development Funding.

  • Community Event Funding: up to $15,000 (plus GST), to support the delivery and enhancement of events that can encourage local engagement and participation.
  • Event Development Funding: from $15,000 to $30,000 (plus GST), to support the delivery and enhancement of events that can demonstrate strong potential to develop and grow – including the capacity to generate tourist visitation and economic activity.

Events must be staged in 2022. Applications will only be considered for single-year funding.

The ACT Event Fund 2022 will be open for applications from Tuesday 3 August 2021 until Monday 6 September 2021 at 3.00pm.
