Nothing has launched the Club Nothing Fund 2026, a global initiative supporting independent music collectives and event organisers who are reimagining nightlife through bold, community-driven experiences.
As part of its new Club Nothing event series, the programme will award four grants to help bring original club nights, event series, or festivals to life. The fund celebrates organisers who use music, creativity, and cultural experimentation to build meaningful experiences and new forms of community.
Funding
The successful applicants will each receive USD 10,000Â to produce their proposed event.
In addition to financial support, selected organisers will collaborate with the Nothing team throughout the planning and delivery of their event, including the development of co-branded merchandise and promotional materials.
Categories
The Club Nothing Fund is looking for ambitious event concepts that push creative boundaries and challenge conventional nightlife formats.
From underground club nights and experimental festivals to site-specific music experiences, the programme welcomes proposals that combine innovative programming with a strong sense of identity and community.
Applications will be assessed on:
Innovative creativity
Rebellious and original musical direction
Community values
Event planning, feasibility, and budget
Previous experience organising music events
Selected organisers will work closely with the Nothing team to deliver their events and develop collaborative branded merchandise as part of the partnership.
Eligibility
The programme is open worldwide to independent music collectives, event organisers, and creative teams with experience producing music events.
Applicants must submit a proposal for a new or expanded club night, event series, or festival, along with information about their collective and previous work.
