How we price festival paella catering
We will give you a clear, itemised quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Travel, parking and access
- Guest numbers
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- Starters, canapés and desserts
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- The address or venue name
- The date and rough timings
- A picture of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field
- Any dietary needs and allergies
To get a price, use our quote form. Tell us about your event in Well Head, and we will put together a menu and price.
Festival paella catering in Well Head, cooked live
One paella stall covers many diets: meat, seafood and vegan pans side by side. That makes life easier for organisers. For country shows and open days, we can cook seafood paella, chicken and chorizo paella and giant-pan paella.
A fête near Well Head might be on a field with no mains power; tell us what’s available and we will plan around it. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Put all trader information in one pack
- Check allergen info is on display
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Feed crew and volunteers at set times
Pans cook in full view, serving throughout the event.

Live paella or other catering?
Food that sits in a hot cabinet isn’t much to look at. Paella cooking in full view sells itself. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.
