Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council has completed a procurement process for the provision of a yurt at the Lotherton Hall Christmas Experience. This is categorised under event services within the services industry, specifically tailored for a special regime in utilities. The procurement utilised a direct procurement method, below threshold without competition, which culminated in the award and contract stages. The associated contract was signed on 2nd October 2025, with the service period running from 21st November 2025 to 4th January 2026. The focus is primarily within the region of Leeds, United Kingdom, though delivery addresses cover several regions across the UK.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for suppliers in the event services sector, particularly those capable of providing unique thematic experiences like festive installations. Businesses such as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) engaged in event setup and management could significantly benefit from such government contracts. Companies interested in direct procurement opportunities without competition should take note, as this process often favours local or regional service providers capable of meeting specific municipal requirements effectively. The success of Elite Sound (UK) Limited as the supplier demonstrates that specialised event service businesses are well-suited to seize such opportunities.
