A plan for a £70,000 giant bubble in Belfast, lasting for five days during the Maritime Festival, has been burst at Belfast Council.
At the May monthly meeting of the full Belfast City Council, the last meeting before the May 18 local elections, elected representatives refused a recommendation made by council officers to approve a “single tender action” named in an officer report on contracts.
Councillors unanimously agreed to drop a plan for a five day contract for up to £70,000, awarded to Atelier Sisu for the acquisition of a 'unique Giant Bubble Art Installation' as part of the Belfast Maritime Festival this year.
