Applications are now open for the Visa Vibe Grants Program. We’re awarding eight (8) grants of $25,000 each (excluding GST) – one grant in every Australian state and territory – to support projects that reimagine what’s possible after dark.
The Visa Vibe Grants Program supports innovative, inclusive, and community-focused night-time economy projects across Australia.
Informed by insights from the Visa Vibe Economy Report, the program could help grow night-time activity that meets changing consumer behaviours – including Gen Z’s demand for affordable, creative, and community-driven experiences after dark – while strengthening local economies, precincts, and community connection.
We’re looking for projects that:
- Improve safety, affordability, and accessibility after dark
- Champion Gen Z and emerging demographics
- Foster innovation and vibrancy in the night-time economy
- Create measurable impact and legacy beyond the grant period
- Strengthen partnerships and place-based outcomes
Applications close 11:59pm AEDT, Tuesday 24 March 2026.
