Festival paella catering for your event in Kingsey
One paella stall covers many diets: meat, seafood and vegan pans side by side. That makes life easier for organisers. On the menu are chicken and chorizo paella, giant-pan paella and seafood paella, and we’re frequently booked for school fairs and fundraisers and village fêtes.
Near Kingsey, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food stall is a big help. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

Step by step
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. Evening events in Kingsey have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer; after dark, we need a lit pitch.

- We confirm what we will serve, our pitch needs and any paperwork.
- On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.
- The paella cooks in full view, and we serve from the pan through the event.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
