SHAH ALAM, May 5 — Selangor has opened applications for its Visit Selangor Year 2026 (VSY2026) grant, allocating RM600,000 to support tourism programmes and events in conjunction with the state campaign.
According to Tourism Selangor, applications are open until October 31, with the funds set to benefit up to 59 initiatives across the state.
“Selangor is pleased to announce the opening of applications for Visit Selangor Year 2026 Grants, with a total allocation of RM600,000 to support and enhance the ongoing Visit Selangor Year 2026 campaign,” it said in a statement yesterday.
The grants are open to local private companies and organisations, government-linked companies that do not receive government funding for promotional activities, state government subsidiaries, and local non-governmental organisations.
Tourism Selangor said the grants are structured into five tiers — Pusing Selangor Dulu, Discover Selangor, Splendid Selangor, Surprising Selangor, and Selangor Kan Ada — ranging from RM3,000 to RM20,000. Those with compelling and impactful proposals that contribute to Selangor’s tourism ecosystem will be chosen to receive the grant.
“Priority will be given to programmes that generate socio-economic benefits at the domestic level through multi-agency collaboration, as well as initiatives organised within Selangor that attract international tourists or involve global partnerships,” read the statement.
It said that under the VSY2025, 30 agencies received RM300,000 in grants.
“Building on this momentum, the increased allocation for 2026 is expected to further boost tourist arrivals in line with the national Visit Malaysia 2026 campaign, while encouraging more vibrant and localised tourism events throughout Selangor,” said Tourism Selangor.
