    Marketing Blackpool is looking to commission three new installations for the 2014 edition of Showzam - one for the Olympia, Winter Gardens; one for Blackpool Tower Circus; and one for the city's Grand Theatre. The commissions offered are £44,000, £40,000, and £15,000, respectively.

    The commissioning process is open to anyone who would like to apply, but companies are advised that only the very best submissions will be considered and that companies with a history of delivering high quality work on this scale will be favoured. Marketing Blackpool welcomes applications from individuals or groups, as well as a applications representing collaborative approaches so long as they meet the requirements specified within the brief.

    The commissions are subject to funding from a Grants for the Arts application being made this summer, and selection at the submission stage does not guarantee work as the project is dependent on this subvention.
