Summary of the contracting process

The Greater London Authority (GLA), in collaboration with Transport for London, is overseeing the upcoming procurement process for the "New Years Eve Event Framework 2026-2029." As per the planned procurement notice updated on 23rd May 2025, the project's legal basis is rooted in UK legislation 2023/54. The procurement is categorised under services with a focus on recreational, cultural, and sporting services, specifically targeting London's New Year's Eve celebrations. The contract period is anticipated to commence on 1st April 2026 and conclude on 31st March 2030, with a framework agreement in place for a single supplier. Businesses interested in participating should note the next notice is scheduled to be published by 31st July 2025. The procurement stage is currently planned, though prior tenders related to this process have been withdrawn, and details have been revised accordingly.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in large-scale event management and related services. With a sizeable budget of approximately £42 million gross, the framework seeks a seasoned supplier capable of handling high-profile public events, with particular requirements in cultural and recreational activities. Companies with a solid track record in organising significant public festivities and events within urban environments, especially those experienced in working with governmental organisations and adhering to public sector regulations, will find this tender particularly suited to leverage their expertise. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) with innovative approaches to event management may find substantial growth opportunities by establishing a collaboration under this framework.
