Experience Gold Coast welcomes the opportunity to collaborate with event organisers to support an inspiring and diverse portfolio of events for our city.
Our Event Partnerships Program offers funding for events that attract national and international visitation and contribute to positioning the Gold Coast as one of the most sought-after destinations to present an event, attend an event and participate in an event.
The Event Partnerships Program is open for applications year-round for events to be held no earlier than nine (9) months after the application is submitted to allow for adequate lead time.
Event owners seeking an investment of $100,000 (ex GST) or more are strongly encouraged to apply 12 months in advance of the event.
Prior to submitting an application, all event organisers are required to read the Event Partnerships Program Funding Guidelines below:
