Subsidies help you realise the projects and activities you dream of. Explore the different options and prepare your application thoroughly. OPENDOEK sets you on the right path.
Within performing arts in leisure time, several types of subsidies are available:
The impulse subsidy is intended for projects, activities and initiatives that fall outside your regular operations. On this page you will find all the information and can submit an application directly.
There are also options via the Flemish Government, cities and municipalities, and the OP/TIL support centre to realise your theatre project. Discover everything about subsidies for international projects and (small-scale) supra-local cultural projects.
OPENDOEK’s creation grant supports leisure time theatre companies that perform a recent theatre text from the SABAM repertoire for the first time in Belgium. This gives you additional financial support to make new creations possible.
OPENDOEK supports you with expert guidance and know‑how. Subsidies are the next step in the artistic development of you or your group. But maybe you’re not sure which subsidy fits best.

The Department of Culture, Youth and Media has created a subsidy guide. With this online tool, you can discover the different subsidy opportunities available for your theatre group or project.
