What it is
The Destination Events Program is an application-based program that provides funding to event organizers of up to $200,000 (based on the size of the event) to support events, drive economic growth and position the province as a leading destination for diverse events.
Description from B.C. funding and grants search, the funder’s own list of programs. The Government of Canada’s Business Benefits Finder (list of July 17, 2025) doesn’t include it.
Who got it before
