What else we do in Turville
Why choose festival paella catering in Turville?

The process
When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. At midsummer, events in Turville stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Burners and pans go up.
- Pans are cooking as gates open.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
How to prepare
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Planning help
Should I cook it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
How we price festival paella catering
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
- The paellas you choose
- How many guests are eating
- Travel, parking and access
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
Details that help
The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:
- A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
- Expected numbers
- The date and time of the event
- Anything your venue supplies
Send us the date, your venue or RG9 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. Paella adds something different. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.
Why book with us
- A quote that spells everything out
- Everything cooked fresh at your event
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
