Change of dates and deadlines for subsidy applications under the Arts Decree
Are you submitting an application for operating grants, project subsidies or international presentation projects in 2026 or 2027? Please take note of the dates and deadlines below!
In the context of the application round for operating grants (2028-2032) with a deadline of 1 December 2026, the following deviations are provided for project subsidies and international presentation projects:
Project subsidy deviations
- deadline of 15 September 2026: the start date of the project may exceptionally be between 1 January 2027 and 31 August 2027
- deadline of 15 March 2027: The submission deadline has been exceptionally extended to 15 May 2027.
- deadline of 15 May 2027: the start date may exceptionally fall between 1 September 27 and 31 December 27
Deviations from international presentation projects
- deadline of 31 January 2027 goes away
- by the deadline of 31 October 2026, projects with a start date between 1 February 2027 and 31 July 2027 may be submitted on an exceptional basis
Combination of project grants and operating grants
It is not possible to combine operating grants and project subsidies. Would your organisation like to apply for an operating grant? If so, please ensure that any project subsidies that were previously applied for do not overlap with these (potential) operating grants in terms of duration, and therefore have a final end date of 31 December 2027.
