Free commercial premises for regional creative businesses

The Regional Place Activation Program, offered by Renew Australia in conjunction with the Queensland Small Business Commissioner, has arranged for free commercial leases across six councils throughout Queensland.

The program offers eligible businesses free tenancy to generate vibrancy in town centres. With the first round of participating councils now receiving expressions of interest, the second cohort of councils has been announced as:

  • Banana Shire Council
  • Barcaldine Regional Council
  • Charters Towers Regional Council
  • Douglas Shire Council
  • Isaac Regional Council
  • Winton Shire Council

If you are a creative business operating within these council areas, keep an eye out for the expressions of interest opening for Round Two in December 2024.
