Announcement re Touring Round 1, 2021
We regret to say that the application date of 30 April 2020 for Touring Round 1, 2021 has been deferred to later this year. This is due to the considerable uncertainty regarding programming for both 2020 and 2021 brought about by the COVID-19 crisis.
We understand that this will come as a disappointment to those applicants who have put considerable work into preparing an application for touring and we are sorry to have to make this announcement at such a late stage.

As soon as we have a revised date, we will be in touch with you.

~~~

Applications are invited for proposals seeking funding in support of initiatives that are of high artistic quality and that generally have a strong audience focus. This scheme is designed to support the touring and dissemination of work in certain arts disciplines for tours starting between January 2021 and June 2021.

The Touring and Dissemination of Work Scheme is open to applications from organisations and individuals. Applications which demonstrate collaboration / partnership between networks, consortia or other collective groupings of presenters are encouraged, particularly where these indicate a high degree of engagement with audiences and collaboration with the producing entity or artists.

Applicants in receipt of Strategic / Arts Centre / Partnership funding are ineligible for this round. Applicants in receipt of other Arts Council funding are eligible to apply, provided it is clear that the touring or dissemination activity for which funding is sought is additional to those activities for which Arts Council funding has already been offered.

Tours must begin between January 2021 and June 2021.
