Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC) is changing the way it funds community events, with grants reflecting the size of the event and the number of patrons.<\/p>\n

TRC endorsed the change to its Core Community Event Program funding model this week.<\/p>\n

The “competitive funding model” over the next three years means that major events, such as the Crows Nest Day Festival and Millmerran Christmas in the Bush, will receive more funding.<\/p>\n

Cr James O\u2019Shea said events would be categorised based on patronage and eligible funding would reflect the size of each event.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvents across the Toowoomba Region will fall into three categories: major, regional and community,” Cr O’Shea said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Funding eligibility (will be) based on the size of the event which gives greater consistency to our event funding model.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe transition of core community events to competitive funding will encourage self-sufficiency, sustainability and funding compliance allowing for equitable opportunities for all events in regional townships.”<\/p>\n

Grant programs will run twice a year, in February and July.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
