Description

Texas A&M University Athletics seeks a qualified partner to provide comprehensive special‑effects services—including fireworks, pyrotechnics, CO₂/cryogenic jets, fog machines, and related equipment—for all home football games at Kyle Field and additional on‑campus athletic events (soccer, baseball, softball, track & field, basketball, etc.). The contract is a five‑year, single‑award agreement requiring a minimum of 15 fireworks firing positions per football game, a robust inventory of licensed technicians, and $10 million liability insurance. Proposals must be submitted electronically by the September 17, 2026 deadline and will be evaluated on experience, technical capability, pricing, and compliance with insurance and subcontracting requirements.

Budget estimate

$2,500,000 – $10,000,000

The solicitation does not disclose a budget, but comparable collegiate stadium fireworks contracts typically range from $50 k to $150 k per game, depending on show complexity, number of firing positions, and ancillary effects (CO₂, fog, confetti). Assuming an average of 6 home football games plus 4 additional athletics events per season (≈10 events), annual spend could be $500 k–$1.5 M. Over a five‑year term, the total contract value would likely fall between $2.5 M and $10 M. This estimate accounts for equipment procurement, staffing of licensed technicians, insurance costs, and potential inflation.
