Notice Information

Notice Title

GB-Brandon: Backstage Catering at Forest Live Concerts

Notice Description

Forestry Commission England has awarded a contract for backstage catering at Forest Live Music events held at forests in England. Some events operate on the same dates at two different locations. Therefore the contract will include two catering teams on each weekend. During 2016 we anticipate running a programme of 21 events over 7 weekends through June / July. All our concerts are held in rural outdoor locations, in clearings in the forest. All infrastructure and power is temporarily brought in to the venues for the events. The backstage catering service is a vital part of our artist's forest experience and the catering marquee tends to be the hub of the backstage area for artists, their crews and our backstage production teams.
