Active Communities Sponsorship Application

The Devonport City Council’s Active Communities Sponsorship Program supports events and activities that contribute to a healthy, vibrant and inclusive Devonport. 

This funding helps community organisations deliver sport and recreation events that: 

·       Provide benefits to the Devonport community, 

·       Increase the capacity or reach of existing events, 

·       Promote Devonport as a “Living Well City”, and 

·       Support local business, tourism and community wellbeing. 

The goal is to help bring exciting and engaging events to our city – from grassroots competitions to major showcases – that enhance our Living City. 

Your application will be evaluated against assessment criteria.  

Please note: Funding is limited. Council may offer full funding, partial support, or in-kind assistance, depending on your application and available resources.

Applications for the 2026-2027 Financial Year close at 9am on Monday, 9 March 2026.

Applications will be assessed, with a report considered at the Council meeting on 23 March 2026. All applicants will be notified following the Council meeting.
Successful Applicants will be required to report on their project within 8 weeks of the project date.
