Grants are now open for the NSW Seniors Festival Grant Program, which provides $200,000 in funding for community programs and activities that enable older Australians to remain active, healthy and enjoyed during the NSW Seniors Festival.

Local organisations and groups are encouraged to apply for grants of up to $5000 and local councils to apply for grants of up to $10,000 to host events during 2025 NSW Seniors Festival.

The NSW Seniors Festival is a time when the community comes together to recognise and celebrate the incredible contribution older people make to the community.

This grant funding will help local organisations and local councils arrange events for older people right across the region.

Hosting an event is a great away to show appreciation as well as help older people stay active.

The NSW Seniors Festival is the largest celebration for older people in the Southern hemisphere.

This Grants Program helps ensure everyone, no matter where they are across the seat of small communities, everyone can enjoy the celebration.

In 2025 NSW Seniors Festival Grants Program will focus on events that are public, held in regional or remote areas, tailored to culturally and linguistically diverse and Aboriginal communities, and offer unique and engaging intergenerational activities.

Projects must be located within NSW and conducted between March 3 and March 16.

Applications for the 2025 NSW Seniors Festival Grants Program are now open and close on Friday, September 6.

Visit NSW Seniors Festival Grant Program 2025/NSW Government for more information or to submit an application.
