How we price festival paella catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How many courses
- The length of service
- Your choice of paellas
- Waiting and bar staff
The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help

- Expected numbers
- A photo of the space, if you can
- What the venue already provides

The process
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, which we agree with you beforehand. Summer events in Pitch Green have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We confirm what we’ll serve, our pitch needs and any paperwork.
- We arrive at the agreed time to set up the pitch.
- The paella cooks in full view, and we serve from the pan through the event.
- We pack down and leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Tell us where to park and unload
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
