Greater Burlington CVB Grants

Fact (page-stated): The Greater Burlington Partnership Convention & Visitors Bureau offers grants to organizations hosting events in the Greater Burlington (Iowa) area. Two opportunities are described: (1) Sports Grants — the Greater Burlington Sports Commission partners with local non-professional sporting-event organizations to apply for an Iowa Tourism Office sports grant (the state awards $50,000 to ten Iowa Sports Commissions; selected partners contribute a 50% cash match; events must draw tourists from 80+ miles away); and (2) the Destination Greater Burlington Grant for projects and events that significantly promote Greater Burlington as a tourism destination or enhance the tourism experience. Inference: recurring funding opportunities tied to Iowa Tourism cycles. Assumption (NOT page-stated): current-cycle deadlines and Destination grant amounts (the sample Sports Grant cycle shown covered FY24).
