UWL is seeking a suitably equipped venue in which to stage its graduation ceremonies. The ceremonies will usually take place over 2 or 3 consecutive working days. It is envisaged that 2 or 3 graduation ceremonies will take place on each of the days. Furthermore, it is expected that 1800 delegates will attend each of the graduation ceremonies, of which 500 will be the graduands.

The principal requirement will therefore be for an auditorium which has a capacity of at least 2000 delegates. It will also be a requirement that the Service Provider offers a full complement of support staff before, during and after the graduation ceremonies, including janitorial, venue set-up and take-down, audio-visual, security, ticketing and catering staff.
