The Young Promoter Fund supports music promoters aged 18-30 to deliver contemporary live music events, build professional skills, grow community connections, and strengthen pathways into the live music industry.

You can request up to $5,000 per event, to a maximum of $25,000. 

Additional funding is available for young promoters to engage a mentor to support the development and delivery of their live music series. There are two types of mentorship opportunities:

  • applicant identified mentorship – if you already have an experienced industry professional you want to be mentored by you can request an extra $5,000 to support their involvement. You just need to allocate this additional request into your grant request and justify it with eligible costs in the expenditure table of your budget.
  • Sound NSW facilitated mentorship – if successful, we can find an experienced industry professional to act as your mentor. We will pay the mentor directly.
