Major Event Fund

Grant Description

The Major Event Fund is designed to strengthen Canberra’s visitor economy by providing matched grants from $50,000 to $500,000 for nationally or internationally significant events that fill gaps in the city’s annual calendar, drive substantial overnight visitation and tourist spend, and elevate Canberra’s profile through strategic marketing partnerships; recipients must leverage supplementary investment from event partners, collaborate with VisitCanberra to align with the ACT Tourism Strategy 2023–2030 and the CBR Switched On economic development missions, and deliver measurable economic returns alongside vibrant, community-engaging experiences that reflect and involve Canberra’s diverse cultural and business sectors.
