2026 Colorado River Bridge/Area Holiday Light Display

Grand County, Utah, is soliciting proposals for the 2026 Colorado River Bridge and Area Holiday Light Display under solicitation number GC10031. The selected contractor will be responsible for a comprehensive product lease arrangement that includes the provision, installation, maintenance, and removal of holiday lighting and decorative elements. The display is centered around the Colorado River pedestrian bridge and cottonwood trees at Lion's Park. Key deliverables include lighting for seven cottonwood trees, over 6,000 C9 bulbs on the bridge, 25 lighted snowflakes on the rock wall, approximately 1,000 handrail lights, and six five-foot bridge snowflakes. The contractor must provide all necessary labor, equipment, lifts, and electrical infrastructure, including at least one generator and telephone support for troubleshooting. The installation must be fully operational by November 6, 2026, with removal scheduled between January 5 and January 12, 2027. Performance is subject to a final inspection by the County's designated project representative to ensure the display is visually consistent, fully functional, and that the site is left free of debris. The contractor must adhere to all federal, state, and local safety regulations, specifically ensuring that electrical cords in pedestrian or vehicle traffic areas are covered by ramps and that crosswalks remain unobstructed. As this is a lease agreement, the contractor retains ownership of all materials and is responsible for the prompt repair or replacement of any defective components throughout the display period.
