DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Vista, California seeks a vendor to provide concession services at the Moonlight Amphitheatre during the summer season, which typically runs from May through October. The season consists of five Broadway-style musicals, each with fourteen performances, as well as a youth theatre production with five performances over two weekends. The average nightly audience ranges from 1,000 to 1,500, with total summer attendance reaching approximately 75,000 patrons.
Musical performances are held Wednesday through Sunday evenings, starting at either 7:30 PM or 8:00 PM, with gates opening 1.5 to 2 hours prior. Food and beverage services must be available to patrons beginning two hours before each performance and continuing through the end of intermission. Once performances begin, concession operations must be limited so as not to disrupt the production, resuming as usual during intermission when applicable. The contract period for services is five years, and operational protocols must align with performance schedules and audience needs.
