Revive Live (Closed Non-Competitive)

Overview

The Revive Live program was announced as part of the Government’s Critical Support for the Live Music and Festivals measure in the 2024/25 Federal Budget. The Government provided a further $25 million to extend the program for an additional two years to 30 June 2027. Revive Live provides essential support to established live music venues and Australian music festivals through open competitive and closed non-competitive grant opportunities to assist them to continue to operate in the current operating climate, limiting venue closures and event cancellations, and stimulating long-term sustainability.  This grant opportunity provides flexibility to allow the Department to invite specific organisations to submit applications for a project that addresses the strategic needs of the sector, outside the timeframes of the open competitive grant opportunity. The assessment of such projects ensures the program can address identified emerging sector priorities or barriers to growth in a timely manner.
