Update On The Status Of MGE Open Call Cultural Events Applications

The Department of Sport, Arts, and Culture (DSAC) wishes to update all applicants for the 2021/22 MGE Open Call Cultural Events in line with the Media statement issued on the 20th of October 2021, where the department committed to putting every effort to adjudicate and to finish the process by end of the month of October.

We can now report that a special team was appointed to work day and night to ensure that adjudication is done and completed without failure. It is therefore confirmed that indeed the adjudication of 2583 Cultural events workstream applications has been completed; and that we will be informing the successful applicants of the outcome as soon as all other administrative activities required after adjudication process are finalised.   

The Department remains committed in giving feedback and keeping its clients informed. For further enquires related to the MGE open call grant please contact: Email: mge@dsac.gov.za and Toll-free Number: 0800 724 278
