We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- Spacing from tents and other structures
- Vehicle access before and after the event

Can I do a taco night myself?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. There are fillings to slow-cook, tortillas to keep warm and salsas to make. Read our guide to taco bars.

- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
- We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
- When trading ends, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
