The Events Sector Covid Support Scheme (ESCSS) was launched as a support measure for those supplying services in the events sector to make a contribution to the overheads of businesses that have been significantly negatively affected by COVID-19 restrictions.
The scheme has funding of €11.5 million.
This scheme will be open to SMEs who provide services to the events industry including services to provide for the production of all forms of live performance, exhibitions and trade shows, including:
Businesses that are not eligible for, and are not getting, the Covid Restrictions Support Scheme (CRSS) are eligible to apply.
Support will be offered by way of a single once-off payment to the value of 7.5% of the VAT-exclusive turnover of the business, up to a maximum award of €50,000.
Applications will be considered strictly by order of date and time of receipt by the department.
This Scheme is now CLOSED for applications. ESCSS opened for applications at 1pm on 4 August 2021 and remained open until 1pm on 31 August 2021.
