How our festival paella catering works in Moreton
One paella stall covers many diets: separate meat, seafood and vegan pans. That makes life easier for organisers. Typical bookings include country shows and crew, volunteer and VIP catering, serving churros, vegan paella and giant-pan paella.
At a fête or field event near Moreton, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground and access. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

The process
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you’re free to enjoy your event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. For an evening event in Moreton, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- You get our menu, pitch requirements and 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.
- We pack down and leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Have a level space ready for the pans
