BCC - 2026-27 Partnership Program

Submissions are now being accepted. Submissions close at 12:00am 23 August 2026 (AEST).

Welcome to the Burnie City Council's online grant application service, powered by SmartyGrants.

The Partnership Program supports organisations, events and initiatives that make a significant, ongoing contribution to the Burnie community and align with the priorities of Making a Better Burnie 2044. Unlike annual grants, Partnership Agreements offer longer-term collaboration involving shared investment, mutual benefit and agreed outcomes, generally for a period of up to three years.

This program is submitted as an Expression of Interest (EOI), not a standard grant application. Council officers may seek further information, meet with you, or negotiate the scope of a proposed partnership before making a recommendation to Council.

View the 2026–27 Expression of Interest Guidelines – Partnership Program and our Privacy Policy before submitting an application.

For queries about the guidelines, deadlines, or questions in the form, please contact the Community Grants Team on (03) 6430 5700 during business hours, or email grants@burnie.tas.gov.au and quote your submission number.
