Grant Description
The Live Music Events Fund (LMEF) provides up to $550,000 annually to support major live music events and festivals in South Australia that can grow into significant tourist attractions. Administered by the Music Development Office (MDO), the fund supports events that promote Adelaide’s designation as a UNESCO City of Music, overcome early-stage financial barriers, create jobs for local musicians and crews, and attract visitors from key domestic tourism markets. It encourages financially sustainable and distinctive music events that do not rely on ongoing government funding.
