The Almería City Council has approved four contracts for the upcoming Christmas that total 417,272.67 euros. Three of them can be applied for until November 23, according to the councillor for Urbanism, Housing and Major Festivals, Eloísa Cabrera. The largest of those put out to tender is the Christmas market: 120,395 euros for the supply, installation, maintenance and dismantling of 70 stalls and 15 wooden stands. There will be 85 commercial installations spread between the Rambla and the Parque Nicolás Salmerón. The contract is being put out to tender again after the previous procedure was left void. The second file is for private surveillance and security for municipal activities, with 101,695.37 euros. The third is the design and production of the video mapping show that will once again be projected in the Plaza de la Constitución, the Plaza Vieja, for 78,650 euros. The fourth contract corresponds to the light and music show 'Posidonia: el susurro de la Navidad', planned in the Parque Nicolás Salmerón, with 116,532.30 euros.

The lighting is already being installed

These four files are in addition to other contracts the City Council has processed in recent months for Christmas 2026-2027. Among them is the award of the extraordinary lighting, with an investment of close to one million euros, whose installation work can already be seen at various points in the city. Cabrera has argued that Christmas also has an impact on commerce, hospitality and tourism: «We want a Christmas that invites people to enjoy our streets and squares, that combines tradition and innovation». Companies interested in the three contracts with an open deadline can submit their bids through the City Council's contractor profile until November 23.
