Description

Derry City and Strabane District Council (DCSDC) invites written tenders from suitably experienced organisations for the design and development of an Interactive Digital and Immersive Derry Girls Locations Trail, delivering an innovative, self-guided visitor experience across the city. DCSDC currently operates the Derry Girls Exhibition at the Tower Museum, a unique and nostalgic visitor attraction that allows fans to step into the world of the hit television series Derry Girls. The exhibition features original memorabilia from the show, including Erin’s diary, Aunt Sarah’s iconic pyjamas, Ma Mary’s Woolworths sweater, and the Spice Girls costumes, alongside actual sets such as the Quinn household and Erin’s bedroom. The exhibition incorporates immersive digital experiences and visitors get to experience Sister Michaels Office and Erins Bedroom through AR with five activation props that reveal more information about the show’s creator and the characters. There is app-based navigation and at present the app experience is available in English only. our submission must be submitted via etendersNI, via this CFT. No other method of submissions will be accepted. Please refer to the CfT documents for further detail.
