Festivals and Events Assistance Program provides assistance to annual festivals and events that are widely marketed and well organized. A "festival or event" is an on-going annual activity which promotes tourism by attracting visitors to the Island and encourages their participation in such activities. The festival or event must clearly and specifically target off-Island participants and spectators. It must have a broader appeal than just Island residents and participants. The Festival/Event should reflect a quality PEI cultural experience and be environmentally sensitive. Note: Regional, national and international one-time events which have the potential of a major impact in bringing visitors to PEI, but do not fall within the conditions of this program, may meet the criteria of the Product Development Fund.
