How it works
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can spend time with your guests. At midsummer, events in Sway stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter markets, dark by about 4:05pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- Power, water and access are agreed in advance.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
Before we arrive
- Check gates and access routes are wide and high enough
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Tell us what power and water the site has

Mexican street food in Sway, from our truck or trailer
We slow-cook fillings ahead and finish them on site, so service stays quick through busy periods. It works well for open-air performances and summer fairs and fêtes, serving tacos, quesadillas and burrito bowls.
For events in a place like Sway, one hot-food trader that suits most diets makes life easy. A Mexican street-food truck can do that. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:
- Plan for vegan and gluten-free visitors
- Agree when vehicles can move on site
- Ask traders about packaging and waste
- Tell traders about power and water before the day
If crew or volunteer meals are booked, they’re served at the agreed times.
A vegan filling on every menu.

If you’re booking for a business, tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Where the truck can go in Sway
We will be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Trader information and site rules
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before you book.

Sway questions
What’s the nearest station to Sway for guests?
Guests can use Sway station, which is right in Sway.
Do you cater at coastal events near Sway?
Yes, with permission for the spot and firm ground for the truck or trailer. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan fillings, such as spiced mushrooms or black beans, can be part of the menu.
Do you do margaritas?
Yes, we do. Our drinks bar can be booked on its own or with food, with alcohol-free options such as aguas frescas. For alcohol, we’ll check the licensing with you and your venue.
How many guests can you serve?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but our truck and trailer service usually suits around 50 to 400 guests. For anything outside that, ask us.
Can guests build their own tacos?
Yes. We can set up a build-your-own taco bar, served from the truck or a serving table, with fillings, salsas, guacamole and toppings.
What documents can you send?
Share your trader requirements, and we’ll send what you ask for.
What happens if it rains?
We can keep serving from the truck or trailer in the rain, but guests need somewhere covered to eat and drink, such as a marquee, gazebo or nearby building.
Fairs, fêtes and events in Sway
Sway is about 3 miles north-west of Lymington, in Hampshire. For an event in Sway, we can park up at venues, fields, drives and courtyards. Sway is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire we cover. Our truck and trailer cover the area from Sway to Southampton (about 13 miles away).
If you’re organising a summer fair or fundraiser for a school such as St Luke's Church of England Primary School, a taco truck can be a crowd-pleaser. Organisers of a summer fête for a church such as St Luke's Church could add tacos and burritos alongside the bric-a-brac. Shows and fairs in the New Forest National Park, about 3 miles from Sway at most, sometimes have rules on where traders can drive. Send us the site plan and we will plan around it. Within about 4 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
