Notice Description
Portsmouth City Council ('the Council') is seeking to appoint operators to provide various food and drink catering units/stands for outdoor events in 2025.

Details for Lot 4 and Lot 5 are still being finalised. However, Operators should confirm their interest in wanting to bid for either or both lots on the application form. Once further details for lots 4 and 5 become available, the Council intends to only invite operators who have initially expressed interest in bidding for these events to submit proposals.
