Creative tourism grants

Creative Tourism Grants support projects underpinned by the work of professional artists – their ideas, platforms and/or products. Projects must show they will have a reasonable tourism impact. Grants of up to $50,000 are available to Gold Coast based organisations.

There are some free workshops coming up (details below) for businesses to talk to an officer about their idea or application.

The grant can be used for example to improve storytelling (digital project), create a new event, start a new idea (more info below and through the link if needed):
