About

The B.C. Fairs, Festivals and Events fund (the BCFFE Fund) helps community event organizations recover from ongoing challenges related to: 

  • Cost increases 

  • Reduced revenue and sponsorships 

  • Rising costs of equipment and services 

  • Severe weather events

Funding

The BCFFE Fund provides up to about 20% of your total event budget, up to a maximum of $250,000 per event. Your event budget must be at least $10,000. You can use these funds to cover a range of operational expenses. 

Depending on the uptake, the Ministry of Tourism, Arts, Culture and Sport may provide grant amounts higher or lower than 20% of the event budget. 

The total funding for each event will not exceed $250,000. 

Total funding per organization will not exceed $500,000.
