CTBID GRANT REQUESTS
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. Review and consider funding Carlsbad Tourism Business Improvement District (CTBID)
grant applications from Carlsbad Music Festival and San Diego Jazz Festival.
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2013-2 allocating amounts to be determined to the grant applicants.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
In 2008, the CTBID board approved the guidelines to establish a formal grant program. The
objectives of the grant program are to:
Fund projects or events that are going to increase the overnight stays in hotels;
Encourage the development of innovative tourism products;
Promote collaboration within and across sectors of the tourism industry;
Reach important travel segments such as multicultural, family and senior markets;
Strengthen the marketing capacity of our partnering organizations; and
Combine the resources of the CTBID and its tourism partners to leverage their collective
marketing efforts.
The CTBID Board appropriated $50,000 in their 2012-13 budget to fund these grants. As part of
their contract with the CTBID, the VisitCarlsbad Board reviews the applications and makes
funding recommendations to the CTBID Board. The VisitCarlsbad Board reviews the requests
based on the following:
Overall program promotes overnight stays in hotels
Program included a "hotel tie in" (ie special rate or package)
Compelling nature of the project and its potential image impact for the region
Strength of marketing and public relations plan, including partnerships
Likelihood that the project will receive publicity outside the San Diego Market
Time of year that the event occurs
The VisitCarlsbad Board, to date, has recommended, and the CTBID Board has approved,
funding for three grants for a total of $45,000. Applications have been recently received from
the Carlsbad Music Festival and the San Diego Jazz Festival. The Carlsbad Music Festival is
requesting $5,000 to improve their website and fund out-of-region marketing efforts for their
three day event. The San Diego Jazz Festival is a new event for Carlsbad and they are
requesting $10,000 for fund print, radio and internet marketing to regions outside of San Diego
County for their three day event.
The VisitCarlsbad Board met on March 25 to review the application and interview the
applicants. Based on this review they are recommending $5,000 in funding to the San Diego
Jazz Festival.
The table in Exhibit 2 summarizes the 2012-13 grant requests and VisitCarlsbad's
recommendations for funding.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The CTBID 2012-13 Budget contains an appropriation of $50,000 for CTBID Grants of which
$5,000 is still available. No further appropriation is required.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This action does not qualify as a project under the California Environment Quality Act ("CEQA")
and will not have a physical adverse effect on the environment. (CEQA Regulation 15378(b).

Program Description/Scope
Describe your program:
The Carlsbad Music Festival is an annual event that features world-class adventurous performers
and composers in the seaside village of Carlsbad. The Festival has been praised by KPBS as
"one of the area's most innovative showcases," by the San Diego Union Tribune as "phenomenal"
and by the Los Angeles Times as "magnificently enlightening," and in 2010 won the national
ASCAP/Chamber Music America Award for Adventurous Programming and in 2012 and 2013
won prestigious National Endowment for the Arts grants.
The Festival pushes the boundaries of genre by presenting contemporary classical music along
with creative indie-rock, folk, world music and jazz and seeks the points of intersection. In
addition, the Festival supports the creation of new music by commissioning works and enabling
cross-genre collaborations. The Festival is committed to presenting this work to a wide audience
in a manner that integrates itself within community spaces.
The Carlsbad Music Festival's unique adventurous music programming has gained it a loyal and
growing following both in the San Diego area and of cultural tourists from outside the area. The
Festival is currently preparing to mount its 10^'' anniversary Festival (September 20-22, 2013),
which will feature the Village Music Walk, indoor main stage concerts and outdoor concerts in
Magee Park, as well as education programs and community outreach activities.
In 2011, the Festival underwent a major transformation as all events took place within the Village
of Carlsbad. The move was successful and drew over 2000 people to Carlsbad. The 2012 Festival
grew even larger, with attendance of 3500, including both residents of San Diego County and
cultural tourists from throughout Southem California and beyond. All events were accessible by
public transportation and all venues were within easy walking distance of the hotels, restaurants
and retail centers of the seaside Village of Carlsbad.
The funding requested from the Carlsbad Tourism Business Improvement District will be used in
to strengthen the marketing of the Carlsbad Music Festival to out-of-region markets in three
ways:
1) Improve the website through a redesign, to emphasize the 'destination' aspect of
the Festival;
2) Place ads in comparable West Coast music festivals, to showcase the Carlsbad
Music Festival to interested and committed musical tourists, and
3) Fund out-of-region marketing efforts through securing the services of a freelance
publicist or marketing specialist who will focus on those markets.
How will the program benefit Carlsbad tourism?
The 2011 and 2012 Festivals, held entirely in the Village of Carlsbad, received extensive
coverage in the Union Tribune, the North County Times, and the LA Times, as well as through
national blogs and online media outlets including a tweet by Alex Ross of the New Yorker
praising the Festival's "strong line-up," As the reputation of the Festival grows within the music
community, we expect to see attendance grow at the free and ticketed events, drawing fans of
adventurous music from San Diego, throughout Southem Califomia and beyond. As the Festival
continues to grow, the City of Carlsbad will benefit from the increased economic activity
generated during the Festival (the early Fall).
In comparison, one older festival with a similar target market is the Ojai Music Festival. The
Ojai Festival occurs each year in early June, and brings in over 4000 audience members to their
yearly festival, filling the hotels and restaurants of the small town of Ojai. The Carlsbad Music
Festival is a much more recent arrival to the musical scene in Southern Califomia, but it is our
goal to grow into a regular part of the calendar for this group of affluent and sophisticated
musical tourists.
With the acclaim and buzz of past festivals, this year the Carlsbad Music Festival is poised to
dramatically increase its draw as a tourist destination, and the increased marketing enabled by a
BID grant can make this possible.
Experience in Program Area:
The Carlsbad Music Festival Leadership Team consists of Director Matt McBane, Production
Manager Clint Davis and Marketing and Development Manager Linnea Searle. The Leadership
Team will manage the implementation of the project, but we will be working closely with our
Board of Directors, local arts and business associations, and our volunteer organization. The bios
for the Festival staff are listed below.
The Carlsbad Music Festival has a strong and growing Board of Directors. We have recently
added a member with experience in managing and producing music festivals, and our newest
board member is member of the Carlsbad Village Association and works in marketing at one of
the Village hotels. The CMF also has strong ties with the Carlsbad Cultural Arts Office, Museum
of Making Music, ArtPower at UCSD, La Jolla Music Society, New Village Arts Theatre, MATA
Festival (NY), Bang on a Can (NY), Ojai Festival and other artistic and musical organizations
throughout San Diego and nationally. CMF has collaborated with each of these organization and
they have provided advice, marketing and promotional assistance, and/or volunteer help for the
previous Festivals.
Below are the bios of the Festival leadership team:
MATT MCBANE: Director
Mr. McBane founded the Carlsbad Music Festival and has supervised all aspects of its operations.
He is also founder, composer, and violinist his ensemble Build and has extensive experience with
traditional and social marketing tools for music events. For his work on the Festival, he was
selected as one of Musical America's 2012 "Rising Stars in the Performing Arts."
CLINTON DAVIS: Production Manager
Mr. Davis was added to the staff in 2010 and manages the production of the Festival. A PhD
candidate in music at the University of Califomia at San Diego, Davis also assists in artist
relations and grant writing.
LINNEA SEARLE: Marketing and Development Manager
Ms. Searle was added to the staff in 2011 to manage the marketing and development functions.
She has an MBA from the Haas School of Business at UC Berkeley and experience working as a
marketer for Nestle in Glendale, CA. She is a resident of Carlsbad.
Financial Capabilities/Budget:
The Festival has received strong support from local and national sources. In 2012, the Festival
received a prestigious Artworks Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts for $7500 and
this funding was increased to $10,000 for the 2013 Festival season. For the past several years we
have received yearly fiinding from the City of Carlsbad and the San Diego County Board of
Supervisors Community Enhancement Grant ($10,000 from each source). With the success of the
2012 Community Stage, ftinded by the Carlsbad Charitable Foundation, we are now exploring
partnerships with local businesses that will enable us to continue to offer free, large-scale
outdoor concerts.
The Festival revenue growth continues to be strong. In the 2012 season, we increased our ticket
revenue by 77%, with growth in our merchandise sales as well. We more than doubled our
individual fiindraising from 2010 to 2011, and we ended 2012 with another 50% increase over
the 2011 level.
The budget for this project is as follows:
Website redesign: $2500
Full Page ad in 2013 Ojai Music Festival Program: $800
Creative costs for Ads: $200
Marketing Specialist: $1500
These expenditures will be matched by Festival from our general operating budget.

To Whom It May Concern,
The Wigwam partnered with Arizona Jazz Festival for two major events In 2012. Currently the
resort is contracted for a Spring and Fall Festival in 2013 and In the fmal stages of contracting
dates for two events in 2014.
The Arizona Jazz Festival hosts 4,000 guests per day over a three day period in April and
October. The resort visibility generated through social and traditional media, coupled with a
dedicated Public Relations effort has elevated the resort's prominence within the Arizona
marketplace.
We are proud to be associated with this first class event and hope to continue our relationship
for many years to come.
Should further information be needed, I welcome a call on my direct dial line of 623-856-1025.

March 13,2013
To Whom This May Concern:
It Is my pleasure to recommend Brad Laughlln and his team at BTW. Our first experience with
BTW was In September of 2012 when we hosted the Las Vegas Jazz Festival here at the Resort
at Summerlln. This was a large event that was out of the traditional scope of event experience
for our property. But with thfelr assistance during the planning Implementation process, BTW
showed us their full support and as a result, the festival was a well-executed success.
In addition, BTW effectively handled any unforeseen challenges that arose during the event in a
quick and precise manner. Moreover, the open and constant communication we received from
