Festival paella catering in Stockbridge, made fresh on the day
Because paella is cooked in big batches, it handles lunchtime rushes well. Portions are served in seconds. Whether it’s food and music festivals and farmers’ and Christmas markets, we will put together a menu of churros, vegan paella and giant-pan paella and more.
Near Stockbridge, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a paella stall is a welcome sight. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, with each paella cooked in its own pan and clearly labelled.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, every diet is easy. We suggest:
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
- Make sure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options
We set up at the agreed time, following your trader pack.

DIY paella versus live catering
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

How it works
Expect a friendly, organised team. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up the pans and burners, and get on with cooking and serving. Summer events in Stockbridge have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- We check your dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Burners and pans go up.
- The first pans are ready as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day
- Leave space around the cooking area
