The initiative aims to secure a commercial partner to assist with the upcoming Torbay Airshow, scheduled to take place on the 3rd and 4th of June 2017. This event, held in Torquay, England, had a successful inaugural edition attracting around 150,000 spectators. The deadline for submissions of expressions of interest is set for 12:00 noon on the 19th of September 2016. The procurement falls under the category of miscellaneous business and business-related services (CPV code: 79900000). This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses, particularly in the sectors of event management, marketing, catering, and trade sales. Companies that can generate income through sponsorship and have experience in event production are strongly encouraged to compete. The opportunity to partner with Torbay Council not only facilitates involvement in a high-profile community event but also opens doors for potential future collaborations on various projects, thus enhancing the potential for long-term business relationships within the region. ## Notice Torbay Council is intending to tender for a commercial partner to support the Torbay Airshow, in the first instance, with potential to partner the Council on other projects in the future. In order to give suppliers prior notification of the tender and to establish the capacity within the market, prior to issuing the tender, the Council is seeking expressions of interest. After a very successful first edition, Torbay Council is looking for a commercial partner to support Torbay Airshow by drawing in income from sponsorship, trade stand sales, catering stand sales, corporate/ consumer experience options and to lead on the marketing of the event. Torbay council would also be keen to hear from commercial partners who also have skills in event production. The first Torbay Airshow attracted some 150,000 spectators to the event and the aim is to grow attendance each year and benefit the local economy. The second edition takes place over two days 3rd and 4th June 2017 with a potential three hour flying programme each day as well as evening flying on the Saturday. There will be a full ground display on Paignton Green with military attractions as well as a fun fair and other points of interest. The closing date for expressions of interest, which should be submitted through the Supplying the South West e-tendering portal, is Monday 19 September 2016 (12:00 Noon).
