The Permanent Carnival Entity of Concordia informs that the bidding process for the awarding of two key service areas for the 2026 edition has concluded: the concession for the operation of canteens and the commercialization of the event's advertising spaces.
Following the call for bids, with the opening of envelopes scheduled for July 24, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., there were three potential bidders who withdrew the specifications, but only one of them submitted a formal proposal. After evaluating and verifying it, and complying with the formal requirements, the evaluation committee awarded the gastronomic services and commercial management for all parade nights at the “Atanasio Bonfiglio” Corsódromo to Ancarola Luciano.
Luis Sánchez, director of the Permanent Carnival Entity, pointed out that “unifying the advertising and canteen tenders allows the awardee to work with more time and, consequently, in a more organized manner, to promote our carnival, attracting top brands well in advance and, above all, guaranteeing a service at the level that the spectator deserves.”
In this sense, he highlighted the transparency of the process and the importance of having an operator with experience and commitment, who supports the sustained growth of the carnival as a cultural expression and an engine of local economic development.
