State: Maryland
County: Frederick County (MD)
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 03/31/2026
Size of the Grant: $100,000 to $500,000
Grant Duration: 1 Year
Details:
The purpose of TRIPP Development Grants is to help create new reasons for residents of other areas to want to visit Frederick County. This may include new or enhanced attractions, exhibits, website development, or major events (those attracting at least 500 attendees). Marketing expenses may also be covered with Development Grant funds, including brochure or poster printing, direct mail, advertising, or trade show registrations.
Applications may be submitted by nonprofit attractions or government agencies within Frederick County, as well as by nonprofit organizations that produce large events that are held within Frederick County, and which attract attendees from outside of Frederick County. Main Street organizations may only apply for advertising awards since there is a dedicated Main Street Cooperative Funding program.
Funding Information
Visit Frederick (the Tourism Council of Frederick County, Inc.) is allocating $500,000.
Grant Period
July 1, 2026 – June 30, 2027.
