Fund helps bring more events to regional Victoria

“The Regional Events Fund will support events across Victoria that will give people even more reason to explore and discover what our state has to offer,” she said.

Grants of up to $500,000 will be open to organisers for festivals, sports events, exhibitions and more to attract and grow events of international or national significance while grants of up to $50,000 will be available for marketing and support of events that attract intrastate and interstate visitors.

The Regional Events Fund supports events that help attract more people to visit the regions, expanding the length of time visitors stay in the area, and increases the amount of money spent in local communities.

Applications for the Regional Events Fund will be opening soon.
