Funding will be provided for major events held in the City of Launceston municipality, where local, intrastate, interstate and potentially international attendees are the main audience. These events will deliver an inclusive experience, encouraging community participation, creativity, and will build community spirit, foster pride and a sense of place. They will also deliver tourism and economic returns to the Launceston community, building the profile and reputation of Launceston as a great place to live, visit and invest.
Applications can be made for funding under one of two sponsorship levels.
Level 1 - up to $12,500 (+GST if applicable).
Would typically be an event held in the City of Launceston municipality attracting audiences from our local area and intrastate.
Level 2 - up to $20,000 (+GST if applicable).
Would typically be an event held in the City of Launceston municipality attracting larger audiences from our local area, intrastate, interstate and/or overseas.
Applicants who meet the eligibility and assessment criteria are not guaranteed funding as we can receive more funding applications than we can support. The success of an application is determined by its merits against the assessment criteria below and in competition with other submissions.
