This Request for Bid (RFB) is an invitation by the Government of Saskatchewan (GOS) to prospective
Proponents to provide Submissions for the provision of Frost 2027 Winter Playground.
The Provincial Capital Commission is looking to hire an organization to design, build, and
maintain a premium quality interactive structure made of snow and ice that will consist of a maze,
slides, and art carving. Given the premier status of the Frost Regina Winter Festival, it is critical that all
interested parties have proven experience building a similar structure at either a large-scale winter
event, or with organizations that could be considered at a equal or greater level. It is also required that
the proponent have the proven ability to design, build, and maintain this structure for the duration of
the festival, including the sourcing/supplying of all snow and ice needed. The proponent must also have
the proven ability to create artwork in the snow and ice that is at a professional level that is expected at
an event of this caliber.
There is a smaller, secondary part of this contract which is the desire to work with this proponent to
deliver youth programming at the event, preferably in the area of an art activity using winter materials
such as snow or ice.
The Frost Regina Winter Festival 2027 will take place on January 30-31 and February 6-7 2027, and there
is no flexibility on these dates.
