Musicboard Berlin · Support Tour Funding
Rolling applications, but only until 30 November, and they must arrive at least three weeks before the tour starts. Listing it as simply "rolling" is how people miss it.
Money for Berlin musicians opening for a more established act on tour. It is expense-linked rather than a lump sum, so you are reimbursing real costs, not receiving a fee.
Deadlines
| Tier | Date | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| Rolling, until | 30 November 2026, 6.00pm | Free to apply |
| Also required | At least 3 weeks before the tour starts | — |
The rules that matter
- Up to €3,500 per tour, expense-linked, with no lump sum.
- For Berlin-resident musicians and bands.
- You need at least three consecutive concerts outside Berlin, supporting a more established headliner.
- The tour must finish within the same year.
- Decisions come about three weeks after the application arrives.
"Rolling" has two catches
Applications are accepted continuously, but only until 30 November 2026, and each one must arrive at least three weeks before the tour begins. A tour starting in mid-December is therefore already too late to fund from this round.
