Events and festival support
A MESSAGE FROM HITAF RASHEED, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR EVENTS SOUTH AUSTRALIA
We are thrilled to see a range of events and festivals now being delivered successfully and in a COVIDSafe way throughout South Australia. What a huge effort from all South Australians and the industry.
The events and festivals industry provides amazing economic, cultural and community outcomes for the State – what you do is so important!
The team at the South Australian Tourism Commission, including all of us at Events South Australia, continue to think about all of you who either own, deliver, provide services to or support events and festivals in South Australia. We welcome any feedback on how we can provide support to the industry at large.
Please read on for some useful information for the events and festivals industry.
