Tourism Business Continuity Scheme

The Tourism Business Continuity Scheme that was announced in last October's Budget has been launched to provide support to providers of tourism services who have been unable to qualify for the COVID-19 Restrictions Support Scheme (CRSS) or earlier grant schemes.

Who can apply?

The scheme is open to businesses including outdoor activity providers, visitor attractions not eligible for CRSS, as well as caravan and camping providers registered with Fáilte Ireland and cruise hire firms that meet the eligibility criteria.
