Exhibition Tenders
See open Exhibition tenders and awarded contracts for the UK public sector.
Notices cover exhibition design, build and fit out, from full museum gallery renewals to trade show and conference stands, plus the graphics, display equipment and cultural event delivery that go with them. Overseas cultural exhibitions delivered on behalf of government bodies are a recurring, more specialist thread.
Museums and galleries buy the bulk of this work, alongside local authorities and trade bodies exhibiting at property and investment events, and government departments running cultural programmes abroad.

How do I find exhibition contracts in the UK public sector?
Search live portals for open exhibition tenders, or track museums and galleries ahead of a gallery renewal programme, since major exhibition fit-outs are planned years in advance. Stotles pulls notices from 100+ portals into one place.
What kinds of exhibition work do public sector buyers tender for?
Museum exhibition design, build and fit out is the largest single category, running from a single gallery refresh to a multi-year, multi-gallery renewal programme. Trade show and conference exhibition stands, exhibition graphics and display equipment, and cultural exhibition delivery services round out the rest.
Who buys exhibition work?
Museums and galleries commission most of it, particularly around major anniversary or gallery renewal programmes. Local authorities and investment bodies buy exhibition stands for property and trade events, and government departments and cultural bodies commission exhibition delivery for events held overseas.
Is museum exhibition work the same as general construction?
It overlaps but is not identical. A gallery renewal typically bundles construction work with specialist exhibition design, AV integration and visitor flow consultancy, so a single programme can span both this page and the general construction market. The exhibition-specific design, graphics and display work is what sets this category apart.
