For planners, venues and organisers
Organising a club, school or community event in Hawkley? Paella is quick to serve to a crowd and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
How the day works
Service is quick: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so large groups are fed quickly. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. Summer events in Hawkley have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our stall menu and what we need on site.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- On the day, the pans are on before the busiest hours.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
