Key requirements include: flexible and robust design suitable for intensive public use; energy efficiency and whole-life operational performance; quality standards comparable to leading international event facilities; and sustained positive contribution to Cork's cultural, social, and economic development. The successful bidder will be responsible for the full development, financing, and long-term operation of the centre under a concession agreement. The concession period will be determined during the competitive procurement process under EU Directive 2014/23/EU. This is a strategic opportunity for experienced venue developers and operators to create a landmark facility serving local communities, residents, and visitors. Interested suppliers should review the full procurement documents for detailed specifications, requirements, and contractual terms.
