A relevant offer, good use of public money, varied suppliers.

Adapted procedure
Advertising and tendering: a plain answer on whether we bid.
Local communication campaigns and materials
Posters, newsletter, social media: the event is prepared there too.
- Graphic design: poster, programme, invitation, roll-up banner.
- Printing, finishing, display materials and site signage.
- Digital versions: visuals, banners, registration form.
- The local authority’s brand guidelines, never our own.

Request a quoteAccessibility is decided at the quote stage, not the day before
A legal obligation, and a selection criterion for local authorities.
- Law of 11 February 2005: mandatory accessibility.
- Access routes, reserved seating, stage height: planned early.
- Each item separate in the quote, so it remains arbitrable.
- Legible signage, hearing loop, sign language on request.
Local authorities, twinning, institutions: each format has its page
Twinning committees and public institutions call for the same standards: protocol, precedence, public money.
