About our festival paella catering in Wisley
One paella stall covers many diets: separate meat, seafood and vegan pans. That makes life easier for organisers. We are often asked to cater charity and school events and race days and sports events, serving giant-pan paella, seafood paella and chicken and chorizo paella.
At a fête or field event near Wisley, a paella stall brings a hot, filling meal to a rural site. Tell us about the ground and access. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.
Step by step
The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. For an evening event in Wisley, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.

Common questions in Wisley
How far is Wisley from London?
About 21 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Which station should guests use for Wisley?
West Byfleet station, about 1.7 miles north-west of the centre.
Can you feed our volunteers?
Yes. Crew, volunteer and VIP catering is available, with or without a public stall.
What about pudding?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
We can. Let us know what you have, and we’ll quote for the rest.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Usually we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Should we have more than one paella?
Most events have two or three: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will suggest a split based on your guests.
Can vegans eat at your stall?
Yes. The vegan pan is cooked separately.
Catering for every guest
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Give traders a single information pack
- Plan seating near the food area
Allergen information is available at the stall.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
What affects the price in Wisley
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Your choice of paellas
- How long we are needed on site
- How many guests are eating
Larger events usually cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- Roughly how many adults and children
- A picture of where we’d cook
