## Description

Tees Valley Combined Authority recognises the benefits that festivals bring to the region - socially, economically and reputationally\. Festivals and events play a vital role in bringing communities together, transforming experience and perceptions of place and attracting visitors to the region\. There is already a thriving festival ecology across the Tees Valley and to support the growth of the indigenous festivals ecology, TVCA has launched a Festivals Scale Up Programme \(FSUP\), the first initiative of the new Growth Programme for the Creative and Visitor Economies\. The FSUP is a strategic and ambitious intervention to support the growth and sustainability of the region's most exciting indigenous festivals\. The Festivals Scale Up Programme will support a portfolio of festival businesses/organisations \(8-10\) over a four-year period \(2022/23 - 2025/26\)\. Support will include a mix of grant funding, training, specialist information, advice and guidance, access to industry or professional services support, mentoring, and access to a peer-to-peer network\. TVCA wishes to secure the services of specialist sector organisation/business who can work with the festival businesses and organisations in the Festival Scale Up Programme across the four-year programme to support them to scale up, commercialise and plan for a sustainable future\.
