To date, the provincial government has awarded nearly 2 million dollars in Tourism Events Programing funding to festivals across BC.
More than 35 events province-wide are benefiting from the funding, including 24 new events announced yesterday.
While most of the new events centre around the southern portion of the province, the Cold Snap Music Festival in Prince George will be one of the fresh recipients of the funding.
Applications for the next intake of events, which can be anything that drives tourism to BC, open up on October 31st.
