Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, every diet is easy. We suggest:
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Put picnic tables near the traders
- Check traders’ packaging and waste plans
- Schedule crew meals
Allergen details are available at the stall.

Why choose live paella in Woodlands?
Not every trader covers vegans. A paella stall can have a vegan pan alongside the rest. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

For event organisers in Woodlands
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.
How we price festival paella catering
Each event is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Timings and hours
- How many staff you need
- How many guests are eating
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- The courses you’d like
- Where the event is
- A photo of the space, if you can
- Diets and allergies you know about
The quickest way to a quote is to send us your details through our quote form. Give us the details of your event, and we will suggest paellas and extras to suit.
Space, weather and the venue
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We look for:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- Firm, level ground
- Vehicle access before and after the event
Woodlands is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
