The Town Team is particularly interested in creative proposals that establish a distinctive identity for Dunleer rather than relying solely on conventional Christmas decorations. Suppliers are encouraged to propose contemporary and innovative lighting solutions that complement the existing character of the town and create an attractive experience for residents, businesses and visitors. All proposed installations must comply with relevant Irish and European electrical and safety standards and with any requirements of Louth County Council, ESB Networks or other relevant statutory bodies.

Tenderers should provide details of their proposed approach, examples of comparable projects previously undertaken, proposed equipment and lighting specifications, indicative programme for installation and removal, maintenance arrangements, warranties where applicable, and a clear breakdown of costs. Where appropriate, suppliers should distinguish between equipment proposed for purchase and equipment proposed for seasonal hire or rental and identify any recurring annual costs associated with installation, maintenance, removal or storage. The overall objective is to establish a safe, attractive, sustainable and adaptable illumination scheme that enhances Dunleer during the Christmas season while providing opportunities to animate and celebrate the town at other key times throughout the year. Estimated value: €100,000
