New grants program announced.
The number of all-ages shows in Sydney is set to increase significantly thanks to a new grants program introduced by MusicNSW and City Of Sydney.
The All Ages Access Grants (AAA Grants), designed to encourage venues, booking agents, musicians and managers to present more all-ages gigs, will provide funding to cover artist fees, production and promotion costs for events in inner Sydney from February-June next year.
"Live music and performance enriches our city’s cultural life and contributes to the local creative economy, there’s no question our community supports it," Lord Mayor Clover Moore said.
"Reviving Sydney’s live music scene is a challenge that will require long-term investment from all levels of government but we’ve committed to taking immediate action wherever we can."
