The EOI process is particularly focused on capturing the following types of events/markets:
- Events requiring closures of major roads
- Long stay or recurring events (markets and circuses)
- Events attracting over 1,000 participants
- Events incorporating road closures of Yarra Boulevard
Other types of events are also welcomed. Applicants will be required to submit a preliminary proposal that includes a description of the proposed activity and site, frequency and relevant experience of the applicant. The preliminary proposals will be assessed by a panel and the applicants that best meet Council’s criteria will be issued an in-principle agreement. We will then invite successful applicants to submit a detailed proposal for consideration.
Expressions of Interest Dates:
The next Expressions of Interest round will open in June 2018 for events to be held between November 2018 – October 2019.
