## Summary

The awarded contract is valued at £156,000 gross and has been signed with The Sessions House CIC.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in artistic and cultural services, particularly those capable of influencing local economies through event-driven footfall. Given the nature of Lightwaves as community-led events with substantial economic and social benefits, businesses that can deliver innovative and impactful cultural projects would find this an excellent opportunity for growth.

The procurement process, sans competitive bidding, allows for uniquely qualified suppliers to facilitate the cultural and economic activities envisioned by the district council.

## Notice

There are 4 events taking place in Spilsby, Sutton on Sea, Chapel St Leonards and Sandilands. Lightwaves are community led events and have great economic impact on our local businesses in the quieter months by bringing footfall onto our high streets. The event brings a wave of light, creativity and community spirit. These services meet the specific requirements of an arts/ culture event which cannot be procured competitively due to the nature of the requirement.
