New evening experiences coming soon to Territory tourism

Over $170,000 will be available to Territory tourism operators to develop new evening attractions. 

The Tourism Evening Experiences grant program offers funding of up to $14,500 to support NT operators to develop new and/or seasonal tourism offerings that deliver tourism benefits to the regions, with the 14 operators co-investing more than $82,000 to bring their evening experiences to life.
