International Wine Tourism Competitive Grants

Overview

Wine Australia is inviting a broad range of stakeholders to apply for the International Wine Tourism Competitive Grants program, as part of the Australian Government’s $50 million Export and Regional Wine Support Package (the $50m Package). The Competitive Grants provide eligible stakeholders with the opportunity to apply for funding on a competitive basis, towards initiatives that will grow either the number of and/or spend by international wine tourists in a particular region. Two categories of grants are available: small grants (up to $50,000) and medium grants ($50,000 - $250,000). Applicants will be able to make multiple applications for either or both categories. Eligible activities include wine tourism marketing and events, infrastructure and innovative products or services targeted at attracting international tourists.  $5 million will be made available under the Competitive Grants and cash co-contributions will be sought to leverage additional investment and maximise impact.
