Festival paella catering in Weybourne, made fresh on the day
Crew and volunteer catering can be timed to your schedule, keeping your team fed. For agricultural and county shows and open days and community events, we will put together a menu of vegan paella, chicken and chorizo paella and giant-pan paella.
In Weybourne, one trader covering most diets keeps it simple. Paella does exactly that. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.
The process
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. At midsummer, events in Weybourne stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- It starts with your event details and pitch information.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and documents.
- We set up at the agreed time.
- Pans cook in full view and we serve throughout the event.
- We clear the pitch and leave it clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Leave space around the cooking area
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather

About the dishes
Vegan paella
Vegans get a hot, filling dish.
Giant paella pans
The huge pan is the star.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Is live paella right for your event?
Most street food is cooked one order at a time. Paella is cooked in big batches and served from the pan, so queues move quickly. Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Cooking your guests will gather round to watch

Space, weather and the venue
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so the cooking area needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Firm, level ground
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Spacing from tents and other structures
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
