How the day works
Serving is quick: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. When service ends, we pack down. Summer events in Upper Edmonton have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- You get our menu and pitch requirements.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.

FAQs for Upper Edmonton
Do you come to school fairs around Upper Edmonton?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
What about parking in Upper Edmonton?
That depends on the street. A drive, a courtyard or a bay suspended by the council can all work, so tell us what’s outside your venue. The ULEZ covers all of Greater London.
What do you need at the venue?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Let us know what the venue supplies.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we will park.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Truck and trailer service normally suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Tell us your numbers.
How spicy is the food?
The food can be kept mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
