    Brief

    Dublin City Council is seeking a qualified service provider for a 6-year Single Party Framework Agreement to supply, install, maintain, remove, and store artistic lighting and projection equipment for the Dublin Winter Lights Festival. The festival illuminates Dublin's iconic landmarks and cultural sites using innovative digital projections and lighting design across outdoor venues, with potential indoor experiences planned for 2027 onwards. The framework supports the annual festival while enabling long-term artistic partnerships, equipment sustainability, and infrastructure development. The extended 6-year term reflects the specialist nature of services, significant investment in equipment and facilities, need for service continuity, and cost amortization over multiple years. Successful providers will manage lighting infrastructure, projection systems, storage facilities, specialist personnel, and festival innovation. This is a Title III Services procurement subject to Directive 2014/24/EU and dependent on project funding. Further details available at www.etenders.gov.ie.
