The Destination NSW program will help businesses and regional communities recover from the impact of drought, floods, bushfires and the COVID-19 pandemic by creating jobs, enhancing the appeal of regional NSW, and improving the quality of the visitor experience.
Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney Stuart Ayres said the Tourism Product Development Fund would help position the NSW visitor economy for long-term growth.
“NSW is open for business and welcoming visitors, and business owners and entrepreneurs are hungry for growth and new opportunities – this program will help visitor economy stakeholders to achieve just that.
“We may be operating in a new, COVID-safe environment but the desire to travel and have new experiences is stronger than ever,” Minister Ayres said.
The Tourism Product Development Fund comprises two streams:
- Refresh and Renew Fund: offering $10,000 grants to regional tourism operators to update their product or experience
- Experience Enhancement Fund: provides between $50,000 and $150,000 in matched funding to assist operators upgrade existing accommodation to be 4 to 5-star, upgrade business and leisure event venues and facilities, repurpose existing infrastructure to provide new facilities or experiences not currently available within the destination, or to create new tourism attractions or experiences
