Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Organising for someone else?
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
