The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts

At midsummer, events in Brockbridge stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
