Notice Title

Land, Leisure and Tourism Show 2025

Notice Description

VisitEngland support for the Land, Leisure & Tourism Show 2025, which gives us a VisitEngland networking area to enable connections between VE, LVEPs, trade bodies & key stakeholders. Due to the nature of the event, we are unable to procure the networking area or stand from any other supplier, meaning that a Direct Award is the only possible approach. The contract value for 2025 is PS10,500, however, this will be the third year of attendance so we are transparently publishing this award in light of the cumulative spend across that period.
