Budget estimate

$200,000 – $800,000

Based on typical municipal event‑equipment contracts of similar scope, a three‑year rental and service agreement for a mid‑size city usually ranges from a few hundred thousand dollars up to around one million. Assuming the city will need multiple sets of AV gear, lighting rigs, staging platforms, and related support staff, a reasonable estimate is roughly $200,000 – $800,000 over the contract term. This range accounts for variability in the number of events, equipment mix, and optional one‑year extensions.
