County offers event sponsorships

Posted on July 11, 2018 by Staff reports

Are you hosting an event that has historically brought in visitors from out of town? Does your event highlight local sports, culture, recreation, entertainment or education? If so, the Santa Rosa County Tourist Development Office may have funds available to help with your event promotion.

Event sponsorship funding may only be used for advertising expenses and will be available as a post-event reimbursement supported by ad placement receipts. Applications are available online or at the Santa Rosa County Tourist Development Office at 8543 Navarre Parkway in Navarre. Act quickly as submissions are due close of business on July 27.

The TDO’s event sponsorship program differs from the office’s local marketing grant program in that the sponsorship is available to established events while the grants are designed specifically for newer events. For questions, contact the Santa Rosa County Tourist Development Office, 850-981-8900 or TDO@santarosa.fl.gov.
