Events In Williams Lake
Event hosting is an emerging market on the international stage and one that has recently been identified as a key sector market for the City of Williams Lake. Williams Lake is well positioned to take advantage of this emerging market with its central location in the heart of the Cariboo Chilcotin, a reputation for its strong community spirit, dedicated volunteers originating from a healthy non-profit sector, an active educational system, and an engaged corporate community.
Why Grants
Our goal as a community is to grow existing events as well as to attract new events and bring new opportunities to Williams Lake, helping to diversify the local economy and serve as a catalyst for both sport and cultural development.
The City of Williams Lake Event Hosting Grant is awarded semiannually in May and November. The next two intake deadlines are
November 30, 2021 and May 30, 2022.
