Program Overview
The Tourism Advisory Panel (TAP) funding is an application based, cost-sharing program designed to provide funding to projects and events that exhibit the capacity to draw more than 5,000 attendees, encourage the development of new tourism products, support tourism investment, and encourage more visitors to Gananoque. Events attracting under 5,000 attendees are eligible to apply for funding and will be reviewed utilizing the same assessment criteria. TAP will fund up to 50% of costs that are deemed eligible by the Advisory Panel.
