UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Erewash Borough Council is procuring an annual themed pyro-musical firework display for West Park in Long Eaton. The requirement covers the supply and delivery of fireworks and the staging of the display as a recurring public event. It is classed as a goods procurement, with the main requirement being fireworks (CPV 24613200). The work will take place at West Park, Long Eaton, for the Council. Suppliers should therefore be able to provide a complete themed display rather than fireworks as a standalone product, with the operational capability to deliver the event safely and consistently on an annual basis. The opportunity is relevant to specialist fireworks display companies, event production businesses and suppliers offering related display services.

The procurement has reached tender: the Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Expressions of interest and clarification queries had to be submitted electronically through the EastMidsTenders e-portal by 31 July 2026 at 16:00, and tenders by 14 August 2026 at 12:00. The estimated value is £37,500 excluding VAT and £45,000 including VAT. The contract period is 1 October 2026 to 30 November 2028, with an option to extend for two further 12-month periods, subject to funding, business need and satisfactory performance; the maximum extent date is 30 November 2030. Award will be based equally on price and quality, weighted at 50% each. The requirement is a single lot.

This opportunity suits specialist fireworks display operators and event production suppliers with the capability to design and deliver themed pyro-musical shows. Strong candidates will need to combine fireworks expertise with musical or audiovisual synchronisation, creative theming, event planning and reliable on-site delivery at a public park. The annual nature of the requirement favours businesses able to provide consistent service across repeated events, maintain suitable operational capacity and manage the practical arrangements associated with staging a display. Suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate the quality of their proposed approach as well as offer competitive pricing, since both factors carry equal weight in evaluation. The Council identifies the procurement as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.
