Introduction

Welcome to the Placemaking Grants Pitch Form

This is the first 'Pitch' stage of applications for the City Renewal Authority’s 2026-2027 Placemaking Grants Program. 

This form is designed to help you - and us - understand if you are eligible for this grant.

Applications are now open, and close 11 March 2026 at 2:00pm.

We encourage you to work offline while you draft your application, rather than working in this form directly - you can cut and paste your final responses into the form when you're ready.

However, please hit save as you go, to ensure you  don't lose any information as incomplete forms and/or forms received after the closing time will not be considered.

Before proceeding please closely review the 2026-27 Placemaking Grants Program Guidelines.

If you have any questions email cityrenewal@act.gov.au
