Community Events Funding

This funding provides financial support for events that celebrate Logan’s diversity and inclusiveness. Events delivered by the community for our community are valued for the experiences and opportunities they provide.

encourage a vibrant, engaged and resilient community
build on the strengths in the local community
value local collaboration and partnerships
encourage participation in community life and foster social cohesion
promote and encourage environmental protection and sustainability
support our city vision of ‘City of Logan, a green city full of pride, opportunity and culture’
support Council’s Corporate Plan priorities.

Visit our Community Event Funding recipients page for examples of previously funded events.
