The South Australian Tourism Commission’s Regional Events Fund aims to strengthen the regional events calendar by encouraging the development of new and innovative regional events, grow existing events, and drive increased visitation and economic stimulus to the regional economy.

There are two categories in the Regional Event Fund:

Established Event Funding
Up to three years’ funding will be provided to events that can demonstrate a strong track record of growth and a strategy for event innovation. Successful applications to the Established Event category will receive from $20,000 up to $50,000 per year in financial support.

Development Event Funding
Up to three years’ funding will be provided to new and emerging events that can demonstrate potential for growth and development to become an annual addition to the event calendar. Successful applications to the Development Event funding will provide $5,000 up to $20,000 per year in financial support.

Applications for the Regional Event Fund 2025-26 are open until 5pm Tuesday 18 March 2025.
