How it works
Guests tend to gather around the truck, so we will help you choose a spot with room for a queue. Rain doesn’t typically stop us serving, but guests will need somewhere covered. Summer events in Chelwood Common have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.

- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We trade, then pack down.
