For an evening event in Hordle, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.

Questions from Hordle
Which station should guests use for Hordle?
The closest is New Milton station, roughly 1.7 miles away.
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Hordle?
We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Will you have a stall at our event?
Tell us about your event, and we will reply with our availability and what we need.
Can you bring margaritas?
That depends on licensing. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, and we’ll go from there.
Is the food very hot?
The food can be kept mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can vegans eat at your stall?
Yes, always. We serve vegan fillings such as black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Who clears up?
We pack down and tidy our own area after service. Ask us if you’d like help with anything else.
When do you arrive?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. The length of service is agreed when you book.
