    Brief

    Aberdeen City Council is seeking market engagement to inform the potential procurement of a Destination Marketing and Development Service for Aberdeen city, funded through the Aberdeen Visitor Levy (effective from 1 April 2027). The service will drive visitor economy growth by delivering destination marketing, city promotion, market intelligence, business engagement, product development, and visitor economy development. Key objectives include increasing awareness of Aberdeen, growing visitor numbers and length of stay, supporting accommodation demand, and amplifying the city's cultural, events, heritage, hospitality, leisure, and business tourism offerings. The service will contribute to Aberdeen's wider economic transition while leveraging the regional offer including landscapes, coastline, castles, golf, food and drink, and outdoor activities. The Council also seeks to understand how the service should integrate with convention bureau and business events activity to maximize additional visitors, bed nights, and economic value. This is a market engagement notice only and does not commit the Council to procurement, contract award, or any particular delivery model.
