Planners, venues and businesses

Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

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 saves passing messages back and forth.

DIY paella versus live catering

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
