Description

Glasgow is building a new approach to winter events in the city following a strategic review of the festive offering and to support the economic and social recovery of the city.  While long-term plans will continue to evolve in the coming months, Glasgow is seeking to work with partners to develop a programme of events and activity in 2025 and 2026 that supports this objective.

St Enoch Square
A sole concessionaire will be awarded the contract for both years.  The single appointed concessionaire will be responsible for the design and build of the winter hubs along with the recruitment and management of all vendors throughout the contract period.
Income – A set fee will be payable to the Council from the successful concessionaire for the rights to provide the Winter Hubs and associated activities for each year of the contract.
