## Summary

Wokingham Town Council has completed the procurement process for the "Party in the Park 2026" event, a summer concert scheduled for 6th June 2026 at Elms Field, Wokingham. The procurement falls under the services category with a focus on event and festival organisation. The process was conducted using an open procedure, indicating transparency and fairness.

Interested parties should note the possibility of renewal to cover events until 2028, offering extended collaboration opportunities, subject to successful evaluations of each event.

SMEs, as well as VCSEs, were particularly encouraged, reflecting the council's inclusive approach. Firms with a proven track record in organising similar events, an understanding of health and safety management, and the ability to work closely with public authorities and stakeholders stand a good chance of succeeding in similar future tenders. The procurement's open procedure suggests accessibility to a wider range of suppliers, fostering competitive business growth for enterprises aiming to enhance their market presence in the public sector.
