Event Exeter is part of the University of Exeter and oversees all events taking place on its Streatham and St Luke’s campuses. We periodically require the hire of marquee structures for various events, including corporate gatherings, conferences, open days etc. These structures need to provide adaptable, temporary spaces to accommodate diverse needs, from guest seating and dining areas to staging, exhibitions, and presentations. Depending on the specific event, we may need marquees of different sizes, designs, and configurations, equipped with suitable flooring, lighting, heating or cooling solutions, and additional accessories to ensure comfort and functionality. Our goal is to create a tailored, weather-resistant environment that aligns with the theme and requirements of each unique event.

two.2.4) Description of the procurement

Event Exeter, a division of the University of Exeter, manages and coordinates all events hosted on the University’s Streatham and St Luke’s campuses. To ensure each event is equipped to meet the specific needs of its organisers and attendees, Event Exeter provides access to a range of furniture, equipment, and other resources as required.

For events that necessitate additional or specialised furnishings, such as seating, tables, staging, or lighting, the University may source this equipment through external hire. This approach allows Event Exeter to flexibly tailor each event’s setup, ensuring that both aesthetic and functional requirements are met without the limitations of onsite inventory. The need for hired equipment can vary widely based on event type, from small gatherings requiring additional tables and chairs to large-scale conferences needing exhibition displays.
