UNSPSC 56101505: Entertainment centers

UNSPSC 56101505 Entertainment centers is a Commodity code that encompasses entertainment, event production, and activity-support services for state and local agencies. Recent solicitations under this code show school districts and municipalities buying student-activity support, outdoor event management, and fundraising-infrastructure services. San Antonio Independent School District has posted multiple continuous open RFPs for student activities and fundraising goods and services, including online donation fundraiser systems with vendor fee caps at 25 percent per fundraiser and bonding requirements of $100,000 minimum. The City of Peoria solicited turnkey outdoor movie event management for its ParkFest program, requiring the contractor to provide all labor, equipment, materials, licensing, supervision, setup, operation, and teardown for free community entertainment events at multiple park locations. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and municipal governments seeking to outsource or augment entertainment and engagement programming.

San Antonio Independent School District dominates recent activity under this code, with five separate RFP iterations posted between June and October 2026, all structured as continuous open solicitations with rolling proposal deadlines (most recently October 15, 2026 for RFP 24-021 (22)). The City of Peoria's ParkFest RFP (P260075) was due July 30, 2026. Texas and Arizona show the strongest recent concentration of activity, though the source materials do not identify other states with comparable recent solicitations. Qualified vendors for the San Antonio RFPs must meet specific requirements including a minimum of five Texas school district client references since January 1, 2020; bonding of $100,000 dedicated to the district; appropriate insurance with the district named as additional insured; criminal background check compliance under Texas Senate Bill 9 for employees with direct student contact; and vendor fees not exceeding 25 percent per fundraiser. Contracts exceeding $25,000 require performance and payment bonds, with payment terms at net thirty days following invoice acceptance.
