grant for Dutch presentations abroad

The grant can be applied for by a venue or festival based outside the Netherlands with a substantial international programme. Grants will not be provided when the first presentation takes place within 4 months after the deadline.

Parties can apply for support to programme performances or concerts by companies, ensembles or performers based in the Netherlands. It is also possible to submit an application for more than one performance by a single organisation or for multiple performances by more than one organisation.

The amount of the grant is determined on the basis of the travel and transport costs for the performance(s) or concert(s) concerned. An additional contribution towards the costs of fringe programming (e.g. workshops, masterclasses, lectures) can be awarded, where applicable.
The inevitable costs of COVID tests with a view to international mobility are currently eligible for financial support. To be eligible, quotations for these costs need to be included with the application. You can use the upload option provided in the application form to submit quotations for travel, transport and visa costs.

The submission dates can be found at the top of this page. The activity for which you are applying for a grant cannot start earlier than four months after the final submission date.
Please note: As of 2021, it is no longer possible to resubmit a rejected application. You can submit your draft application to our grant consultants before submitting.
