What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. Christmas markets in Pipsden trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:15pm.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- The hatch opens when the event does.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
