How it works
The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. We need a level, ventilated spot, which we agree with you beforehand. For an evening event in Wheeler End, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree menu and pitch.
- We set up our burners and pans.
- Pans are cooking as gates open.
- We serve, then pack down.

Planners, venues and businesses
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
What we need at the venue
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Vehicle access to the pitch at set-up and break-down
- A pitch big enough for the pans, burners and serving table
- Trader information and site rules
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
