Budget estimate

$2,500,000 – $5,000,000

The contract will likely be a multi‑year, high‑value agreement. Based on comparable county picnics serving 4,000‑6,000 guests, annual costs (including catering, staffing, equipment rentals, and entertainment) typically range from $500,000 to $1,000,000 per year. Over a five‑year term, the total contract value could therefore be approximately $2.5 million to $5 million. Factors influencing the final amount include the exact attendance each year, the level of entertainment selected, and any escalation clauses embedded in the pricing attachment.
