Community events to flourish in Parramatta with funding boost

A number of new and exciting public events are set to pop up in the City of Parramatta as Council relaunches its Community Events Grants Program.

Community groups and not-for-profits are invited to apply for a share of up to $70,000 in funding to run low-cost or free events that will help revitalise the City and attract visitors.

The Community Events Grants program was not offered in 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions.

"Through our Community Events Grants Program, we hope to provide residents and visitors with more opportunities to connect and celebrate while also supporting our City's recovery from the pandemic."
