The Vienna Tourist Board carries out a preliminary examination of all applications. After the evaluation is completed, a preliminary funding decision is made based on the preliminary key figures including a preliminary funding amount. The organizer is notified in written form of the provisional decision to grant funding. As a rule, the processing period from the receipt of the application to the transmission of the preliminary funding commitment is up to two weeks. The actual funding decision and the actual funding amount will be determined by the Vienna Tourist Board after the event has been held and all information submitted.
