What festival paella catering costs

Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How many courses
  • Whether you need crockery
  • How many staff you need
  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood

If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • The address or venue name
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • What the venue already provides
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

Working with your venue

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Paella compared with other options

Hot-cabinet food lacks theatre. A giant pan cooking in view sells itself. Larger events usually cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Ensure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options
  • Ask traders about serving speed at peak times
  • Give traders a single information pack
  • Schedule crew meals

Allergen information is available at the stall, and each pan is labelled.

Extra pans for busy periods.

Step by step

The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. At midsummer, events in Limmo Peninsula stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.

  1. Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
  2. We reply with our menu, prices for visitors and requirements.
  3. We send the documents the event asks for.
  4. On the day, the pans are on before the busiest hours.
  5. At close, we pack down and tidy up.

How to prepare

  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
