Funding secured for local events

Two Riverland events have been successful in picking up funding through the South Australian Tourism Commission’s Regional Event Fund.

Both the Riverland Rose and Garden Festival & the Sounds in the Quarry music event made the list of 37 events to secure funding across the state.

Minister for Tourism, Zoe Bettison “The Regional Event Fund is an important initiative that supports a thriving events calendar across our state, helping trigger visitation as those thinking about exploring our state commit to a trip”.

Minister Bettison added further “With 43 cents in every tourism dollar spent in the regions, it is important we continue to drive visitation across regional South Australia and this Fund aims to do just that.”
