T2692 Provision of Fairground Rides and Entertainment Packages for Council Evenits

Belfast City Council invites expressions of interest (EOIs) from suitably qualified and experienced providers (‘Bidders’) for the provision of Fairground Rides and Entertainment Packages for Council events including the Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann event in Belfast City in August 2026. Bidders are asked to email their EOI to cps@belfastcity.gov.uk no later than Friday 26th December 2025. Following receipt of EOIs, the Council may seek confirmation from Bidders that they wish to proceed to the next phase of the procurement. Upon confirmation of continued interest, the Council may engage with those Bidders to further explore capability and capacity ahead of later procurement stages. Bidders who confirm their continued interest will then be added to a list of select Bidders who will be involved in further stages of the procurement. These stages are yet to be determined and may be influenced by the level of market interest, but at this stage are likely to include: Stage 1 – Engagement with interested Bidders to understand capability and capacity and to help scope the requirement. Stage 2 – A competitive tendering stage. Any value stated is indicative only, with the final value determined through market engagement.
