EVENTS ACT
Celebrate Gungahlin is supported by the ACT events fund. It assists eligible applicants to further develop, market, and promote their events, while also supporting a diverse, high-quality calendar of events each year.
Within that context, the objectives of the ACT Event Fund are:
To facilitate a vibrant, innovative and inclusive events culture within the ACT.
To help develop a diverse, year-round events calendar.
To encourage the development of tourism in the ACT and increase economic activity in the Canberra region.
To encourage the involvement of the local community in events (e.g. event organisers, event participants/attendees, artists/performers, sponsors/partners, community groups, volunteers and local business).
To facilitate community event activity within Canberra’s town centres and suburbs.
To utilise, activate and enliven community assets, precincts and spaces.
To provide support to viable events that are of high quality, well planned and well managed.
