How we price festival paella catering
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Waiting and bar staff
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Parking and unloading
- How long we’re needed on site
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- A picture of the space, if you can
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The date and time of the event
- The venue or postcode
The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will put together a menu and price.
