The Live Music Events Fund activates the South Australian live music calendar through industry development activity that contributes to audience growth and supports opportunities for South Australian artists and music businesses.

In alignment with A Sound Future, the MDO strategic plan for 2026-28, the fund will support a revised focus on grassroots, emerging, and scaling events to ensure a sustainable ecosystem.

The next grant funding round will open early 2027 for activity taking place in the 2027-28 financial year.

Guidelines will be published in early 2027.
