Community Festivals funding available
The Council will support a range of cultural, sporting or music events provided they are held within the district and promote social cohesion and inclusion, equality of opportunity and good relations. Events should also promote a positive image of the district as well as increase visitor numbers to the area.
To be eligible for financial support, groups must be able to part fund their event and must not receive funding from another government programme.
