These events should be free (or low cost) and accessible, be community driven one day or multi-day events, have broad public appeal, and could feature various forms of entertainment, screenings, performances and stalls. The event should also already attract 3,000+ attendees or (for new events) can attract a minimum of 3,000 attendees in year one.  

The EPP provides match-funding of between $10,000 and $25,000 to events that activate and promote the City and help to create memorable, engaging and innovative experiences for both the local community and visitors.

In addition to financial support, there are further opportunities to leverage Council’s expertise in event planning, marketing and promotion.
