Fairs, Festivals and Events fund will be administered for the second consecutive year to community celebrations, music festivals, agriculture fairs and other eligible events. The one-time grants will be for as much as 20 per cent of the total event budget, up to a maximum of $250,000. Events staged between April 1, 2023, and Dec. 31, 2024, are eligible for funding.

“The past three years have been incredibly difficult for people in the tourism industry, including live events, and we know not every business has fully recovered,” Lana Popham, B.C.’s minister of tourism, arts, culture and sport, said in a statement. “Not only is this going to positively effect the business and promoters that put on these events, it’s going to have a huge impact on the other businesses associated with our industry that were also massively impacted during the pandemic, like tenting companies, stage and production companies, and rental companies.”
