The NT Experience Fund supports the growth and diversification of the Territory’s tourism offerings to meet visitor needs and create connected itineraries that showcase people, stories and landscapes.

  • Cruise tourism
  • Cultural tourism
  • Dark skies experiences
  • Domestic education tourism
  • Fishing
  • Food and drink
  • Major event attendee experiences
