    Brief

    Limerick City and County Council seeks an experienced event management company to deliver comprehensive services for the Limerick St. Patrick's Festival from 2027 to 2029. The three-year contract encompasses full event management, creative programming, stakeholder engagement, sponsorship development, and operational delivery across three core pillars: the Limerick International Band Championship, St. Patrick's Day Parade, and Shamrock Street Shows and Festival Entertainment Programme. The successful contractor will elevate the festival from a regional event to a nationally and internationally recognized hallmark event, driving tourism, economic activity, and community participation while celebrating Irish culture and heritage. Key responsibilities include festival strategy execution, program design, vendor and stakeholder coordination, sponsorship development, marketing support, and ensuring accessibility and sustainability standards. The contractor must demonstrate proven expertise in large-scale festival delivery, creative programming, community engagement, and revenue generation. This is a strategic opportunity to position Limerick as a premier St. Patrick's Festival destination while supporting the council's 2024-2028 Festivals and Events Strategy objectives.
