Maoineachadh
Through its Highland Culture Programme, The Highland Council is supporting events, festivals and other cultural events organised by community organisations, promoters, artists, performers, youth groups and schools. The Highland Culture Programme was created as a long term legacy of Highland 2007, and will offer support to events and projects helping to showcase the vibrant culture of the Highlands to residents and visitors alike. Highland 2007 brought together a programme of more than 600 exciting events celebrating Highland culture in villages, towns and cities throughout the Highlands and Islands and beyond.
For events and festivals already in receipt of a grant award, guidelines and information are provided below.
As part of The Highland Council budget savings process, the Highland Culture Programme of funding is unlikely to be able to provide further support for events and projects in 2011. Future funding deadlines may be set for events and projects in 2012 and futher updates will be provided here in due course.
