In plain English

North East Lincolnshire Council wants an independent event organiser to plan and run a free daytime family event called 'Love Cleethorpes' in Cleethorpes town centre in February 2027. The event is meant to draw people into the town during its quietest retail period, and the contract is valued at £24,000.

What the buyer wants

• Plan, manage and deliver a free family day in Cleethorpes town centre in February 2027, with family activities, live music and entertainment, including local talent and possibly regional or national performers. • Run a market selling food, drink and crafts, mainly from local suppliers, and showcase local retailers, traders and hospitality businesses. • Coordinate dates with the separate events planned for Immingham and Grimsby so the three events do not clash, and bring together retailers, hospitality businesses, schools and community groups.

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice asks for applicants who are 'suitably experienced, and qualified' event organisers, so a small business without a clear track record of delivering public events with performers and market stalls would most likely be ruled out.

Always check the tender documents.
