Tourism Event Grants Program

Council is committed to supporting tourism events and recognises the importance of such events which seek to boost economic growth by way of increasing visitor numbers and enhancing the visitor experience in the Northern Grampians Shire.

Tourism events are defined under the Northern Grampians Shire Council Events Policy 2021 as events held within the Northern Grampians Shire that attract over 500 patrons from outside Northern Grampians. These have a minimum of 500 forecast participants per day and may be multi-day events involving several locations.
