TourMark Funding Information
The City of Sparks Tourism and Marketing Committee distributes funds to be used for special events. The objective of events is to give the City of Sparks the opportunity to introduce or reinforce our brand and meet our event objectives:
-
To promote tourism;
-
To encourage economic impact;
-
To stimulate civic pride.
This application is available until January 1, 2025. Please gather your elements before you begin. ALL DOCUMENTS MUST BE IN PDF format.
The post-event report is due 60 days after the last day of your event. Failure to submit a post report could result in the rejection of future funding requests.
Funding is decided at a Tourism and Marketing Committee meeting. At the funding meetings, each producer will have the opportunity to present your request to the committee and field questions from the committee about your event and your efforts to make it successful. Funding is typically approved and allocated at this meeting. When the meeting has been scheduled, you will be advised of the date, time and location.
VERY IMPORTANT: This is a grant application for the City of Sparks Tourism & Marketing Committee. This is separate from a special events permit. New events need to have a permit submitted BEFORE you can apply for funding.
