Before booking anyone
- The deposit and payment dates
- What happens if it rains
- How each diet is kept separate
- What the caterer needs from your venue
Should I do it myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

Planning for every diet
A Mexican menu is easy to plan for mixed diets, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:
- Agree waste arrangements with traders
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Schedule crew meals
Allergen details are on hand for every dish.
Nachos for groups.
How the day works
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a picture of the space if you’re unsure. Christmas markets in Longfield trade in the dark from about 3:50pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:20pm.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We trade, then pack down.
Before we arrive
