Tourism Events and Festivals Grants

Tourism Events and Festivals Grants

The County Promotion Unit at South Dublin County Council are dedicated to supporting events or festivals that will drive tourism and help to develop the visitor experience on offer in the area. The aim is to fund innovative events or festivals centred around food, culture, sport and activity that will increase bed nights and stimulate the local economy.

This funding programme is aimed at organisations and event organisers who plan to hold a public event or festival in South Dublin County Council’s administrative area and who require financial assistance via public funds to deliver the event or festival.

For more information please see our privacy-statement and brochure.

To find out more or to apply for funding please visit LEO South Dublin.

Please be aware that if food is being supplied at your event, you may be required to prepare and supply a food waste management plan in accordance with the provisions of the WASTE MANAGEMENT (FOOD WASTE) REGULATIONS 2009 as amended. Your food waste management plan must be submitted to the local authority at least 30 days prior to the commencement of your event.  Please see regulations attached.
