## Summary

The Bristol City Council has awarded a contract for the BSH/CEN/Lascaux 3D touring exhibition to Lascaux International Exhibition. The procurement process has been completed, with a total value of £120,000 in GBP. The contract period is from 6th March 2023 to 30th September 2023. The exhibition is a virtual reality and digital experience showcasing the caves of Lascaux in France, known for their historic artwork. The contract was awarded on 23rd February 2023.

This procurement opportunity presents a niche market for businesses involved in museum-exhibition services. The awarded contract signifies an opportunity for growth and collaboration within the cultural and artistic exhibition sector. Businesses offering similar virtual reality and digital experience services would be well-suited to compete. The Bristol City Council serves as the buying organisation, located in Bristol, England, and has identified Lascaux International Exhibition as the supplier for this exclusive service.

## Notice

We want to hire a complete touring exhibition package from the Lascaux International Exhibition company. This is to raise profile, generate income and plug a short notice gap that has arisen in Bristol Museum & Art Gallery's programme. It is a virtual reality and digital experience exhibition, allowing visitors to put on a VR headset and explore the famous caves of Lascaux in the Dordogne, where the earliest preserved human art works were discovered in the 1940s. They include the iconic images of hunters, deer and bison, hand outlines and so on, recognised all over the world. The caves themselves have been closed to the public since the 1960s so this is a unique opportunity to 'visit' them. The suppliers are the only possible supplier for this service, and are offering us UK sector exclusivity and a special reduced rate.
