kulturradet.se Twice a year, the Swedish Arts Council awards grants for international tours by Swedish artists and performances in Sweden by visiting international artists. Practitioners in the fields of dance, drama, musical theatre, opera, circus, performance art and other disciplines are eligible for funding. The collaborating Swedish partners apply for the grants, which are chiefly intended to cover travel, visa, shipping and similar costs. Additionally, Swedish practitioners can also apply for funding for individual productions, presentations or international co-productions as part of the regular project support, which are open to applicants twice per year. These grants can be used as match funding for EU-supported projects.
