Federal tourism funding coming to two major attractions in Guelph
Guelph MP Lloyd Longfield made the announcement on Thursday at the Guelph Civic Museum.
“Coming out of COVID, a lot of budgets were stretched, including the federal government’s,” Longfield said. “But we can take part in partnering with communities to fill where gaps on funding exists.” Illuminate Guelph began in 2021 with help from a provincial grant. It sees light displays be put up at historic buildings across Guelph.“The reconnect grant got us started with five buildings, four outside, one inside,” said Sam Jewell, events manager at the DGBA. “The tourism relief fund became available later on allowing us to significantly expand on this.”
