Budget estimate

$200,000 – $500,000

The contract is for a one‑time, high‑visibility public event series. Similar transit‑opening event contracts in comparable U.S. markets have ranged from $200 k to $500 k depending on scope, staffing levels, and marketing material production. Assuming a moderate‑size launch with several public activities, a realistic estimate would be between $250 k and $400 k, with potential upside if additional promotional deliverables are required.
