Bayview Third Street Event Grant Program

Grow Your Event. Grow Your Business. Grow the Corridor.
 

We’re excited to support a new wave of events and activations along the Bayview’s Third Street corridor.

Through this grant opportunity, selected businesses, creatives, and organizers will receive funding and hands-on marketing support to bring their ideas to life — and to make sure people actually show up.

​

What You Get

This isn’t just funding — this is a partnership.

Selected grantees will receive:

​

• Financial support to produce your event or activation

• Marketing strategy and campaign guidance

• Social media and promotional support

• Help building visibility for your business and your event

• Access to a broader corridor-wide marketing campaign

You’ll be supported by Trending Socials, in partnership with SFOEWD, to help maximize attendance, engagement, and overall impact.

​

Who Should Apply

We’re looking for:

​

• Small businesses on or near Third Street

• Food and beverage concepts

• Artists, performers, and creatives

• Community organizers and cultural producers

• Anyone with a strong idea that brings people to the corridor

​

Whether you’re planning a pop-up, performance, food experience, or community event — we want to hear from you.

What We’re Looking For

We’re prioritizing ideas that:

​

• Bring foot traffic to Third Street

• Create a strong, engaging experience for attendees

• Support local businesses and collaboration

• Reflect the culture and energy of Bayview

• Have clear potential to attract an audience
