What festival paella catering costs
Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Travel, parking and access
- The number of people
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
There is 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
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode
- Your date and when you want to eat

Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

Planners, venues and businesses
Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
