Festival paella catering in Fulwell, cooked live

In Fulwell, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Public spaces normally need council permission, and we’ll send whatever the organiser needs. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.

Should I cook it myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
The menu, dish by dish
Chicken & chorizo paella
A hearty, smoky pan.
Seafood paella
The seafood pan is a festival favourite.
Planning the cooking area
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Pitch space for cooking and serving
- A pitch away from tents and structures
- Trader information and site rules
As a London location, Fulwell is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Step by step
We get there well before serving, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Guests normally gather round to watch as the paella takes shape. Summer events in Fulwell have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

What festival paella catering costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Whether you need crockery
- Waiting and bar staff
- The length of service
- Guest numbers
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

To check availability and price, we need:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A picture of where we’d cook
- Anything your venue supplies
- The courses you’d like
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, location, guest numbers and diets. You can send us your details through our quote form.
Dietary needs and planning tips
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Check how many portions traders can serve
- Put all trader information in one pack
- Provide seating near the food
Pans cook in full view, and serve from the pan throughout the event.
Churros and tapas can join the menu.

Paella compared with other options
Food that sits in a hot cabinet is not much to look at. A huge pan cooking in view sells itself. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
