Contract value

$1,500,000

The solicitation does not disclose a total dollar value. However, a full‑service agency handling radio, TV, OOH, print, and digital ads for a state fair over five years typically commands a multi‑year budget in the low‑to‑mid millions. Assuming an average annual spend of $300,000–$500,000 for media production, placement, and agency fees, the 5‑year contract would range between $1.5 million and $2.5 million. Conservatively, a $1.5 million estimate reflects a modest media plan with limited supplemental services.
