Fairs, fêtes and events in Nettlebed
Nettlebed is about 7 miles north of Caversham, in Oxfordshire. For an event in Nettlebed, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards in and around Nettlebed. Nettlebed is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire we cover. Our nearest city page is Reading, about 9 miles away.
A fundraiser for a church like Church of St Bartholomew might use a food truck to give visitors a reason to stay longer. Shows and fairs in the Chilterns National Landscape, about 5 miles from Nettlebed at most, sometimes have rules on where traders can drive. Send us the site plan and we will plan around it.
We serve at events all over RG9 and the streets around it. Local streets include The Ridgeway, Wanbourne Lane and Watlington Street; for an event at home on any of them, tell us where the truck or trailer can park.

Crew, volunteer and hospitality catering.
Should I do it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Nettlebed: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Nettlebed?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the details, and we’ll confirm availability and requirements.
Can you serve alcohol at our event?
It depends on the event’s licence. Let us know how alcohol is licensed at your event.
What about power on site?
It depends on the event and the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there’s a supply near where we’ll park.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Is there a vegan option at your stall?
Yes. We serve vegan fillings such as black beans or spiced mushrooms.
Do you need power?
Tell us what’s available at the pitch and we’ll confirm what we need. We confirm power and water with each booking.
