Tender description
Scottish Canals invites tenders for the appointment of an Immersive Exhibition Design & Installation Company (the Supplier) to undertake the design, build and installation of a new, purpose-built Immersive Experience and Exhibition (the Experience) at The Falkirk Wheel – one of Scotland’s most iconic visitor attractions. The existing visitor offer at The Falkirk Wheel is highly successful but is predominantly outdoor, seasonal and operationally constrained. There is currently a gap in the offer for a high-quality, all-weather, emotionally engaging experience that deepens understanding of the site, supports paid entry and encourages longer dwell times. The Immersive Experience Building forms a cornerstone project within the wider Falkirk Wheel Masterplan and will play a central strategic role in enhancing the visitor offer, restructuring the customer journey, and supporting the commercial, operational and experiential success of the site.
