Allocation Considerations: 

• funding availability is dependent on Tourism Mississauga’s annual event hosting budget
• not all groups meeting the requirements will receive funding
• the event should not be reliant on grant funding in order to successfully operate
• approval of a grant in any one year does not mean the organization will receive it again in future years – applications must be made each year for returning events

The following must be submitted for the application to be considered for approval:

• the purpose and objectives of the event
• a high level timeline and action plan for the event
• the events’ organizational structure including names and roles for each position
• a description of the attendee/delegate profile
• a high level draft event budget listing revenues and expenses.
• a description of how funding will be used and
• a description of how any additional funds will be used in the event of a revenue surplus
• a description of how the event will align with the City of Mississauga’s Economic Development sectors 
• a description of the expected economic impact to the City of Mississauga
• a description of how the event will contribute to the legacy of the City of Mississauga
• estimated number of hotel room nights brought to the City
