For festivals, numbers can be larger than most of our events, so share expected numbers and trading hours and we’ll plan around them. It works well for festivals and county and country shows, serving burrito bowls, tacos and loaded nachos.
At a field event near Monkwood, power and water may be limited; tell us what’s available and we will plan around it. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.
How it works
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, let us know and we’ll adjust where we can. For an evening event in Monkwood, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; beyond that, ask the organiser how the site will be lit.
