Paella in a bowl is perfect festival food, standing up or sitting on the grass. We are frequently asked to cater open days and community events and race days and sports events, with vegan paella, seafood paella and churros.
At a fête or field event near Sevington, a paella stall brings a hot, filling meal to a rural site. Ground conditions and access matter, so tell us about them. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and a queue moves quickly.

How the day works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. For an evening event in Sevington, sunset is about 8:45pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- Send us your event details and pitch information.
- We send our menu, needs and paperwork.
- We arrive and set up at the agreed time.
- We cook in full view and serve all event.
- We clear and leave the pitch clean.

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Give traders a single information pack
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Schedule crew meals
We keep our pitch tidy and safe throughout the day.
