Budget estimate

$200,000 – $350,000

No contract value is disclosed, but the scope involves 27 staff nightly for roughly 60 nights (≈1,620 staff‑days). Assuming an average hourly rate of $20‑$25 for temporary event staff (≈$150‑$190 per staff per night), labor costs alone would range $243,000‑$308,000. Adding insurance, training, and administrative overhead could push total contract value to roughly $200,000‑$350,000.
