Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we will only consider applications for events/festivals taking place from September 2020 to June 2021.
This call for proposals is aimed at providing limited funding to events/festivals which require additional capital to establish and or to grow such a event/festival. The funding will be allocated in the form of a grant.
Hessequa Municipality will provide financial- and non-financial support, based on the following criteria:
– Seasonality of the event/festival
– Localised job creation
– Marketing plan of the event/festival
– Utilisation of the media
– Applicant as a registered entity
– Completed Risk Assessment form
NOTE: Incomplete submissions will be disqualified
Application forms are available on this website and also on the municipal website: www.hessequa.gov.za. As an alternative, contact the Senior Tourism and Development Officer, Mr R Malan at riaan@hessequa.gov.za / 028 713 8000
