Facilities needed to support a tokened drinks reception with alcoholic and non-alcoholic options and full accessibility via lift or ramp.

The venue was to be available for both July and December ceremonies (weeks commencing 15 July 2024 and 16 December 2024), with setup the day before and the space kept intact throughout the ceremony periods.

Good public transport links, parking for guests, and parking for a supplier van were also required, with the location relevant and accessible to Leeds Trinity University (e.g., Leeds city centre, Leeds area, or Horsforth).

The contract value was AUD 100,000.
