高い経済成長率を示してきたヨークシャー・ハンバー地域に、一年中多様なイベントスペースとして使用できる移動パビリオンをデザインする実施コンペ。延床面積はおよそ300平米とし、設営・解体が容易な軽量でコンパクトな構成とすること。建設予算は1億2千万、オープンは2009年9月。

Description
The Renaissance Pavilion is a demountable building for Yorkshire Forward to promote, showcase and host events to celebrate the continuing Renaissance of Yorkshire’s great places and to demonstrate the Renaissance Commitment to Great Places. The Renaissance programme has invested considerable sums in delivering high quality public realm and new public spaces across the region, and the Pavilion is conceived as a viable approach to encourage local authority ownership and programming of these new places for events throughout the year. This is a competition to find a design team for this pavilion.
Yorkshire Forward invites participants to suggest inspiring, deliverable ideas for this new demountable building which will provide a unique event space. The Renaissance Pavilion will open at a yet-to-be-confirmed location in Yorkshire, as part of the Renaissance Festival. Once open, it will travel throughout the region. The Pavilion must also be capable of creating its own sustainable lifetime beyond this Festival.
The budget for the fabrication of the building is £650,000.
