Regional Events and Festivals

The South Australian Tourism Commission provides financial and marketing support to organisations conducting tourism events that are capable of generating an increase in visitor activity in South Australia, and which lift the profile of its tourism regions within and beyond the State.

The Regional Events and Festivals Program has been established to support marketing and promotional activities but not to fund budget shortfalls.  Support is available to new, expanding and one-off events with significant tourism or promotional value.

• Barossa Vintage Festival
• Clare Valley Gourmet
• Coonawarra Cabernet Celebrations
• Feast Festival
• Fleurieu Art Prize
• Kangaroo Island Cup Carnival
• Kernewek Lowender
• Lobethal Grand Carnival
