Marketing and Events Partnership Program 2022
The Marketing and Events Partnership Program (MEPP) provides businesses and organizations opportunities to partner with Tourism Saskatchewan in the promotion of tourism products, services, attractions and events to audiences within and outside the province.
Support is available to create or update digital assets, such as websites and e-commerce portals, and expand social media marketing. Support is also available for market research through approved sources. Research projects require consultation with Tourism Saskatchewan prior to submission. Traditional tactics, such as radio and display ads, that are part of a full marketing plan will also be considered. Marketplace and trade show support is available to outfitters.
The program is competitive and application-based. Approved partners may receive up to $15,000 in support.
All interested MEPP applicants are required to fill out an online questionnaire to help Tourism Saskatchewan better understand their business marketing needs. Questionnaires can be submitted at any time. All prospective applicants who complete a questionnaire and are eligible for MEPP funding will be issued a full application link at the start of the next intake period.
The deadline for applications to the spring 2022 intake has now passed. Dates for the fall 2022 intake will be determined in September.
