Grants for Tasmania’s agricultural show societies will enable them to maintain and improve infrastructure for annual shows
Applications are now open for Tasmania’s Agricultural Show Development Grants Program 2025-26, supporting the continued operation of the state’s annual field days.
As part of the 2024 State Election, the Tasmanian government committed $500,000 over three years to the program.
For the 2025-26 round, a total funding pool of $147,000 is available, with grants of up to $20,000 for eligible show societies that deliver annual agricultural shows in Tasmania.
The grants program will allow show societies to maintain and improve infrastructure, governance and organisational capability.
“Agricultural shows are a proud tradition in many of our regional communities, bringing people together to celebrate Tasmania’s agricultural sector,” Tasmanian primary industries minister Gavin Pearce says.
“I encourage all eligible show societies to apply and make use of this important grants program.”
Applications are open until April 23, 2026, with applicants to be notified of outcomes in May 2026.
