Even though Life Instyle and Reed Gift Fair were both moved to April, there is some good news for exhibitors who want to participate in one of the first retail trade events in over 12 months.
Life Instyle and Reed Gift Fair Sydney have recently been added to the schedule of approved events for the Australian Business Events Grant Program.
The Business Events Grant Program aims to incentivise Australian businesses to participate as buyers or sellers at pre-approved business events (including exhibitions, conferences and conventions) from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021.
This means that exhibitors can apply for a grant to help cover up to 50 per cent of the costs associated with exhibiting at the April event. This can include your exhibition space cost, stand build, travel and accommodation, with grant amounts ranging from $10,000 per entity per application up to a maximum of $250,000.
At this point in time, grants are only available for the Sydney show with applications closing on 30 March 2021.
Life Instyle and Reed Gift Fair are held from 17 to 20 Aprill at the ICC in Sydney.
