Qld wants private sector to fund Fanfare

The popular Queensland school band competition Fanfare may continue with funding from the private sector.

The government axed the biennial competition, which cost $88,000, last week after 30 years of financial backing.

Education Minister John-Paul Langbroek said he would work hard to bring it back with private funding.

“If we can get the festival sponsored – and already some possible backers have come forward – it will be back stronger than ever in two years’ time,” he said in a statement.

“This is an excellent case for a public, private partnership, where the department can provide the coordination and private enterprise the necessary funding.”
