Westbere events: pitches and permissions

Running a fête for a church like Church of All Saints? A Mexican street-food truck draws people in. For a public event, it helps to tell people that the nearest station is Sturry station, about 1.2 miles south-west. Within about 5 miles of the sea, coastal events bring wind and sand into the plan. A firm, sheltered pitch suits a truck or trailer best.
We serve at events all over the CT2 postcode area and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Island Road, Pennington Close and Bushy Hill Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

Step by step
Here’s how the day normally runs: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. At midsummer, events in Westbere stay light until about 9:15pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
- We reply with our stall menu and what we need on site.
- We confirm power, water and access arrangements.
- We plan to be ready for the lunchtime rush.
- At close, we pack down and tidy up.
