Contemporary Music Festival Viability Fund

Grant Description

This fund provides up to $500,000 in milestone-based support to alleviate immediate financial pressure on established, large-scale contemporary music festivals in New South Wales, bolstering their operational resilience, safeguarding jobs and supplier contracts, and ensuring audiences and artists can continue to enjoy vibrant, original live-music experiences; by targeting government-related and core operating expenses during the cost-of-living crisis, it underpins business sustainability, nurtures the broader music ecosystem and stimulates local economic activity across NSW.
