## Summary

The North Tyneside Council has completed the tender process for securing an artist for the annual Mouth of the Tyne Festival in 2018, with a total contract value of £55,000. The procurement was classified under event services and utilised a single tender action below the threshold. The contract period runs from 12 February 2018 to 8 July 2018, while the tender period concluded on 1 February 2018. The location for the delivery of services is the North East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the event services industry, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can provide suitable artists for cultural events. Creative agencies and performance arts companies aligned with the festival's profile and budget would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging with the contracting authority, North Tyneside Council, could also lead to future collaborations in the region's diverse event landscape.
