We are currently seeking event management services to deliver project management and operational delivery of the carnival. The event typically provides carnival groups with the opportunity to showcase their talents in front of 30,000 on-lookers throughout the day, from 12noon - 8pm. It involves a 3 mile procession route for 1000 performers and their floats, four static sound systems, live stages, play areas and stalls. The commissioned organisation will be responsible for ensuring that the event is developed in close partnership with all necessary authorities, council services and relevant external agencies, to ensure that the event is safe and well managed for all involved, and that it causes minimum disruption for the rest of the borough's population. The commissioned organisation will also work closely with the appointed Creative Director, who will be responsible for the creative programming of the event. This close working relationship will ensure that the requirements of the performers will be incorporated into the operational plans and equally, that the performers will be fully aware of what is required of them from a safety perspective. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d4042c03-851a-42ee-be5e-6693b04abcd9 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 17 Nov 2017 | | Submission deadline | 1 Dec 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 8 Jan 2018 - 21 Oct 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £25,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF HACKNEY | | Locality | HACKNEY | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E8 1EA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI41 Hackney and Newham | | Local authority | Hackney | | Electoral ward | Hackney Central | | Westminster constituency | Hackney South and Shoreditch | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79952000 - Event services ## Release History - 17 Nov 2017 at 14:03 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d4042c03-851a-42ee-be5e-6693b04abcd9 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d4042c03-851a-42ee-be5e-6693b04abcd9 17th November 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.hackney.gov.uk/tenders RFQ Docs ## Notice URLs - http://www.hackney.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
