Australian Event Awards
The Australian Event Awards is a new program intended to reward performance and encourage excellence in the event industry.
It is the only opportunity for Australian events and event organisers to be acknowledged on a level playing field, across the entire national events industry.
The ACT Government supports the Australian Event Awards and encourages the ACT Festivals and Event Sector to apply.
ACT Festival Fund
The ACT Government is inviting applications to the ACT Festival Fund for festival activities that take place in 2010.
The ACT Government, through the ACT Festival Fund, supports a diverse range of festivals that reflect the wide range of community interests and activities that enrich the experience of living in Canberra.
Are you a talented performer looking for a break?
The Special Events Unit of the Chief Minister's Department is on the lookout for our best local entertainers, groups and performers for potential future bookings and appearances at special events organised by the ACT Government.
Our event season runs from September-March and we are currently planning for the upcoming event season.
