In plain English
North East Lincolnshire Council wants an independent event organiser to plan and run a free family day in Grimsby town centre in February 2027, themed 'Love Your Town'. The event should include family activities, live music, entertainment and a market, and is meant to bring shoppers into the town centre during its quietest retail period. The estimated value is £24,000.
What the buyer wants
• Plan, coordinate, manage and deliver a free daytime family event in Grimsby town centre in February 2027 • Liaise with the council on dates so the Grimsby event does not clash with the separate Immingham and Cleethorpes events • Deliver live music, family activities and entertainment, including local, regional and possibly national performers, plus a market selling mainly local food, drink and crafts, with input from local retailers, hospitality businesses, schools and community groups
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice asks for suitably experienced and qualified event organisers, so a small business without a proven record of running events of this scale is most likely to be ruled out.
Always check the tender documents.
