The "Spark" Tourism Microgrant program aims to support the development of new and emerging entrepreneurs offering visitor experiences and services within the Yukon’s tourism sector. The program will provide financial support to entrepreneurs and act as a catalyst to encourage the development and implementation of innovative visitor experiences and services that have the potential to spark larger future projects and experiences. This is not an opportunity for established entities to expand their existing offerings.
The fund is aimed at Yukon-based individuals, businesses, First Nations governments, First Nation Development entities, and not-for-profit organizations.
Successful applicants can be awarded between $1,000 to $5,000. The exact amount awarded will depend on the project's scope, potential impact, and feasibility. Funding can cover up to 100% of eligible expenses.

The deadline to apply for Intake 2 is 4:30 pm on June 15, 2026.
