Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free included. To get it right:
- Plan access routes for trader vehicles
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
- Make sure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options
- Confirm power and water with traders
We keep our pitch tidy and safe.
Bowls as a gluten-free choice.
Is Mexican street food right for your event?
Crew sandwiches are easy but dull. A hot burrito or taco bowl keeps crew going. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
