The brief

Worcester City Council is inviting tenders for the Provision, Installation and Maintenance of Worcester City Christmas Lights.

Worcester is a city which is proud of its history, with many listed buildings and heritage attractions.

The city also boasts a vibrant cultural offering alongside quality retailers.

It is important to the Council that all Christmas illuminations are respectful of this heritage and culture.

The Supplier will be required to provide illuminations in city streets; testing of fixtures and the installation and maintenance of the lights; installation and dressing Christmas trees; installation of one feature on a prominent roundabout; and support for their switch on, which may be part of a wider Council event.

Tenders from Bidders who fail to make a site visit will be treated as non-compliant and will not be considered further.
