Grant Description
The Destination Kickstarter Event stream supports the development of new Queensland events in their first year of operation (or those inactive for at least three years) with strong tourism potential. The program is designed to establish and grow new visitor-attracting events that align with Homegrown objectives by generating economic activity, increasing out-of-region visitation, and strengthening the host destination’s profile. Funding of up to $25,000 (ex GST) per year is available for up to two years, subject to matched or exceeded investment from the Event’s Local Council or Regional Tourism Organisation (RTO) and demonstrated tourism outcomes.
