- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Access wide and high enough to drive in, with gates and soft lawns checked first
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
