Tourism Innovation Grants open

Tourism and hospitality operators are encouraged to apply for grants of up to $1 million to deliver projects which will drive visitation to regional parts of Tasmania. 

The Tourism Innovation Grant Program is now open, with the Tasmanian Liberal Government investing $8 million into the initiative. 

We know that our tourism and hospitality industries are vital to Tasmania’s future economic sustainability.

The quality of our attractions and our unique experiences is what sets us apart from the rest of the world, and what has truly cemented Tasmania as a premiere travel destination.

This Grants Program is aimed at supporting the growth of the sector by assisting in the development of contemporary and competitive Tasmanian tourism offerings.

To be eligible, the offerings must be consistent with the goals of the T21 Visitor Economy Recovery Action Plan to increase visitor spending, grow the value of regional tourism and support new employment opportunities.

Applications are now open and close 8 April 2022 and will be assessed through a competitive grants process.
