Galway City Council supports Community Festivals in local areas to encourage participation in community life. The Council will support festivals which are organised and run by local residents as a way to reconnect the local community. This scheme is for Community led projects only. Commercial for profit organisations are not eligible to apply.
The main purpose of the Grant Scheme is to provide financial assistance to groups and organisations engaged in projects, events or developments at local level. The emphasis of the scheme is on providing funding for a diverse range of projects thus ensuring that the limited financial resources available are used to the maximum benefit of the community at large.
