Tourism business survival grants open

Tourism WA's Tourism Business Survival Grant Program is now open for online applications to support tourism businesses that can demonstrate extreme hardship as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Grants of $25,000 to $100,000 are available from a $4 million funding pool through a competitive application process.

The program aims to ensure a viable tourism industry in Western Australia, enabling the survival of businesses that attract visitors to the State.

Successful applicants can use the funding for a range of recovery costs including fixed costs and overheads, equipment deployment and activation, staff recruitment and training, reinstating supply-chain requirements and licenses and marketing activities.
