·         Place Marketing – promoting and marketing Fremantle to  residents and visitors (local, interstate and international)

Sponsorship Applications are now open!

The City of Fremantle has a commitment to support projects and organisations that promote and market the City with the aim to create better commerce for all Fremantle businesses, in particular enhancing building local business capacity and employment prospects. 

The overall guideline for sponsorship requests is to leverage the overall pool of funds available. Therefore there is an expectation that there will be matching funds (cash or in-kind) allocated by the applicant and that project(s) occur in Fremantle. 

Sponsorship applications need to be between a minimum of $1,000 and $10,000 per project and be made on the attached form, answering all questions.

Note that applications for amounts over $10,000 will only be considered in exceptional circumstances.

For further information please see the eligibility criteria on the Sponsorship Application or Sponsorship Assessment Form. All submissions are assessed by a Sponsorship Working Group who meet on a bi-monthly basis. To find out when the next meeting is or for further information please contact City Marketing on 9432 9913 or by email.
