Festivals and Events Grant Program
The City of Brockville is now accepting applications for Festivals and Events Grant Funding. This program supports local organizations and initiatives that enhance community life, foster creativity, and strengthen our vibrant city.
Eligible groups are invited to submit proposals for projects, events, and programs that align with the City’s strategic priorities, including bolstering tourism, cultural preservation, and sustaining community connections. Applications are reviewed by City staff, with funding decisions based on the merits of each submission.
The deadline for applications is Wednesday April 8, 2026, at 4:00 p.m.
For criteria and more information, visit our Festivals and Events Grant page. Applications are to be completed using the City’s online Festivals and Events Grant Application Form.
Background:
The Festivals and Events Grant Program was established in 2025 following updates to the City’s Community Grant Program. It is funded through 15% of the City’s share of Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT) collected in previous years. Funding levels are set annually in March and split evenly between two intakes, with any unused funds from the first intake carried forward.
