Community Events Grant Program

Grant Description

The Community Events Grant Program, administered by the National Australia Day Council, provides up to $10,000 in base funding—with an additional $5,000 available for events featuring significant Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander elements—and $2,000 alternate grants to support inclusive, accessible, and engaging Australia Day 2026 events. With a total funding pool of $4.5 million, the program supports local government, state and territory agencies, and not-for-profit organisations to deliver events that reflect, respect and celebrate Australia’s rich and multicultural identity.
