Culture Mix Development Grants

Culture Mix is a much-loved celebration of our city’s diversity, and it will be back on Saturday 20 September 2025 in the Wollongong CBD!

This one-day event will showcase and celebrate the vibrant and diverse community who call Wollongong home – through food, music, dance, art and workshops.

We are inviting applications from Wollongong-based organisations, groups and communities to create new and interesting performances or activities which strongly reflect Wollongong’s cultural diversity, and which can be part of Culture Mix 2025.

The selection panel will give priority to projects which demonstrate the following:

• A strong connection with multicultural, or Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in Wollongong;
• A sharing of culture across different groups or an exploration of cross-cultural works;
• Build new and innovative programs or encourage the involvement of new participants;
• Build capacity and experience either within your organisation/group or for your community;
• Applicants who were not part of Culture Mix Festival 2023 or 2024 are strongly encouraged to apply.

Grants up to $3,000 excluding GST are available to selected applicants.

Applications for this program are open until 20 April 2025.
