RUG - Pre Market Engagement for Brandon Stadium Future
Description: Rugby Borough Council is undertaking Soft Market Testing to understand whether there is credible market interest in the potential restoration, operation and long-term management of Brandon Stadium for speedway, stock car racing and associated community uses. The purpose of this exercise is to gather structured market intelligence. It is intended to test market appetite, viability, deliverability, operator capability, funding evidence, commercial realism, governance requirements, potential delivery structures, information requirements and the likely role expected of the Council.
Summary: Rugby Borough Council is exploring the potential restoration, operation and long-term management of Brandon Stadium for speedway, stock car racing and related community uses. The services could include operating the sports facility and promoting and organising sporting events. The purpose of the exercise is to understand whether there is credible market interest and how the stadium might be delivered and managed. The work would be based at Brandon Stadium in Rugby. The Council is seeking views from the market on potential delivery structures and the role it might play, alongside information about operating capability, funding and the commercial viability of the proposal. This is market testing, rather than a request for suppliers to submit tenders.
