The procurement process is currently at the Tender stage, with a deadline for tender submissions set for 20th October 2022. The contract period is from 18th November 2022 to 17th November 2023. The procurement falls under the industry category of "Ice rink construction work" and "Provision of services to the community". This tender offers an opportunity for businesses specializing in event services and community engagement to compete. Suppliers who can deliver a commercially successful event, manage revenue streams, and enhance Christmas experiences would be well-suited for this tender. The Cheltenham Borough Council as the buying organisation aims to work closely with the successful Tenderer to create a vibrant and attractive Christmas in Cheltenham experience. ## Notice As part of the town's response and economic recovery to the Covid-19 pandemic, following Cabinet approval in September 2021, Cheltenham Borough Council took on and led the delivery of Cheltenham's Christmas ice rink. The 500 m2 undercover rink, which was located in Imperial Gardens, ran for 45 days from 18th November 2021 to 2nd January 2022. It welcomed a total of 43,563 skaters, making a significant contribution to Cheltenham's festive offering and providing a much needed boost to town centre footfall and trading after such a challenging period. Footfall exceeded even pre-pandemic levels, retailers reported record takings and the car parks were the busiest they have been for two years. It is anticipated that a 2022 ice rink will be operated in a similar fashion, with the Authority underwriting the costs in delivering the event, whilst retaining all revenue from ticket sales, sponsorship and ancillary streams. The Authority would work closely with the successful Tenderer and other partners to deliver a commercially successful event for all parties and an attractive and coherent Christmas in Cheltenham experience, alongside a market, lights switch on and other activities.
