Queensland Week 2011- Funding for an Event

Queensland Week is a special time for all Queenslanders to celebrate what's great about our State. Each year, a range of diverse activities are held that involve families, businesses, schools and a range of community groups throughout the State, each celebrating Queensland's people, places and achievements.

The Queensland Government invites you to get involved in Queensland Week 2011.

About the program

Sponsorship between $2000 and $10 000 (excluding GST) per event is available for organisations and community groups to plan and host their own events between Queensland Week 2011, Saturday 4 and Monday 13 June.

In addition to cash sponsorship, your event will receive marketing support as part of the 2011 Queensland Week program of events.

All eligible applications will be assessed on the event's ability to align with the criteria of the Queensland Week sponsorship program.

Events considered for sponsorship

Types of community events which will be considered for sponsorship include:

  • concerts
  • markets
  • parades

  • barbeques
  • festivals
  • award programs
  • active recreation

  • showcases of local produce
  • short film, art or photographic competitions and displays
  • exhibitions
  • workshops.
