Community Festival Funding
Supporting your community events
We believe in the importance of bringing communities together through arts and culture to chat, meet each other and have fun. We know that community festivals strengthen communities and develop a rich culture and economy.
This is why we provide funding for community events. We offer a total of £35k funding for charities, organisations and individuals in our wonderful borough. You can apply for between £200 and £2k for your festival. Applications are now closed for 2024/25, but come back next year for more.
Last year, we supported all sorts of exciting events from Day of the Dead, Coronation celebrations, tea parties and community dinners. Scroll down for a full list of events funded for 2023/24.
Do contact us on events@camden.gov.uk if you have any queries.
