Victoria's Regional Business Events Program

October 21, 2024

The Victorian Government’s Regional Business Events Program is now open, offering funding to national business event organisers and international incentive event organisers in holding their events in Victoria.

The Victorian Government is investing in tourism across rural and regional Victoria to make it an even better place to live, work, stay and play. As part of the $170 million Regional Tourism and Events Fund, the Regional Business Events Program will ensure our regional tourism offering continues to be the very best by supporting new events, new attractions and more accommodation for visitors.

With a focus on association conferences, trade exhibitions, corporate meetings and seminars, as well as international incentive groups, funding is available to offset actual costs for hosting business events in Victoria.

Grants can be put towards accommodation, venue hire, transport and other event costs, such as marketing and promotion.

There are two funding streams available – for international incentive events to be held in regional Victoria and for national association events and corporate meetings to be held in regional Victoria.
