Great news for tourism and economic development across North Dakota! The North Dakota Department of Commerce has announced an exciting additional funding round for its highly impactful Destination Development Grant (DDG) program.
A significant $4 million is now available to fuel innovative projects aimed at enhancing and expanding tourism initiatives statewide. This is a fantastic opportunity for communities and organizations looking to boost visitor experiences and drive local economies.
These funds, originally earmarked for ND Country Fest’s venue expansion, have become available because the applicant decided not to proceed with their project. This reallocation means a fresh chance for other deserving projects to secure crucial funding.
If you have a vision for a tourism project that can make a real difference, mark your calendars! The application portal is set to open promptly at 9 a.m. CST on February 10th. Be sure to prepare your proposals, as the window will close at 5 p.m. CST on March 10th.
A key detail to remember: all applications must be submitted exclusively through the online portal. Email or mailed submissions will not be accepted. This streamlined process ensures efficiency and accessibility for all eligible applicants.
This additional funding round underscores North Dakota’s commitment to fostering a vibrant tourism sector. Don’t miss this chance to turn your tourism development ideas into reality and contribute to the growth and prosperity of our beautiful state!
