Greater Sydney Tourism Partnership Funding Program

The Greater Sydney Tourism Partnership Funding Program aims to promote tourism destinations and events within the Greater Sydney metropolitan area.

The program offers funding support for cooperative destination marketing campaigns and for event promotion. Event organisers endorsed by local council will be able to apply for the grants.

The $2.7 million program will run for three years, starting from 1 July 2009.

Each year $400,000 will be made available on a dollar for dollar matched basis for local government and industry partners to support co-operative destination marketing campaigns. Cooperative funds will be made available by Tourism NSW for distribution through local councils.

In addition $100,000 will be allocated in grants of up to $10,000 for event promotion.
