Production and operational grants

You can apply for discretionary grants for cultural events and projects from the Cultural Affairs throughout the year. You can apply for operational grants from the Board of Culture and Quality of Life annually.

Production grants

Production grants can be applied for by associations, communities or work groups. A discretionary grant can be given for a one-time, single event, project or venture. The grant will not be given for events or ventures that will make a profit or whose main goal is entrepreneurship. Grants are also not given for events that have to do with the basic functions of an organisation and that are supported by other grants or subsidies. Production grants and project grants can only be used for the purposes stated in the resolution.

The grants are directed at non-profit, unchallenged public events that complete the existing local cultural offerings and that are primarily directed at people from the Tampere region. Production corporations and registered associations can apply for a grant to help with the cost of e.g. the materials, marketing or other costs of an event. The grant is not given for device acquisitions, recordings, publications or for private persons. You can apply for grants at any time. The application must be submitted, however, before the event or project takes place.

It is advisable to contact the unit responsible for giving the grant. The grants from Cultural Affairs are applied for with a special form. The grant will be paid against presentation of receipts.
