Annual Car Show Promotion and Management Service

The City of Pismo Beach is seeking professional promotion and management services for a privately-organized, annual Car Show event. The agency wants to ensure a safe, intergenerational, family-oriented event held on the weekend immediately following Memorial Day. The selected vendor must provide a planned approach covering event promotion, vehicle exhibition types, thematic elements, and potential sponsorships or promotional partnerships. The scope of work requires managing vendors, subcontractors, and exhibitors both during and outside the event. The contractor must ensure adequate event staffing and maintain communication with the City throughout the event. Public safety management is a key requirement, which includes implementing traffic control measures, managing crowds and pedestrian safety, controlling alcohol use, and cooperating with local Police and Fire Departments. Eligible bidders must perform all work onsite and be located onshore within the United States. The agency is issuing this opportunity for a contract period of one year. The budget is not specified, and the agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the cost.
