Your questions about festival paella catering in Woolstone
Could we have live paella in Campbell Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
Which station should guests use for Woolstone?
Milton Keynes Central station, about 2.2 miles west of the centre.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan for them.
Do you offer halal options?
We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and it is cooked separately.
Will there be long queues?
Big batches and service from the pan keep things moving.
Is there a vegan option?
Absolutely. The vegan pan is cooked separately.
Is the paella gluten-free?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
Will you have a stall at our event?
Tell us about your event, and we’ll reply with our availability and what we need.

Why choose festival paella catering in Woolstone?
It works at small fêtes and big festivals.
Almost any gathering can work with live paella. In Woolstone, people book us for events such as:
- Village fêtes
- Sports clubs and race days
- Feeding crew and volunteers
- School and charity events
Events in parks such as Campbell Park need permission from the council or landowner, and we’ll send any documents they ask for.
Before booking anyone
- Whether crockery, cutlery and napkins are included
- How late numbers can change
- Payment terms and deposit
- Space, access and power needs
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Dishes our guests love

Vegan visitors get a real meal.
Giant paella pans

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

How it works
A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, your guests watch the rice cook, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. At midsummer, events in Woolstone stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- We reply with our menu, prices for visitors and requirements.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We time the first pans for the lunchtime rush.
- When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking

Planning help
Catering for every guest
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Check how many portions traders can serve
- Send traders one clear trader pack
- Provide seating near the food
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
Allergen details are available at the stall.
Extra pans for busy periods.
Live paella or other catering?
Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. A paella pan stands out in a food line-up. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
