### Lot Information

Lot 1

The provision of bar services for events, civic hospitality and buffets for small scale events, meetings and conferences is not included in the contract and will continue to be provided by the in-house team. The nature of the events held at the Town Hall means that typically these are booked months if not years in advance.
