Running an event in Wilmington
Wilmington is about 2 miles south-west of Dartford, in Kent.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Contact us for a quote to compare.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
Catering for every guest
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Share vehicle access times with traders
- Ask about peak-time capacity
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
- Share power and water details early
Allergen details are on hand for every dish.
Aguas frescas and soft drinks at the stall.

The process
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you are ready, and we serve your guests fresh until service ends. By late September, it is dark in Wilmington at around 7:05pm, so later trading needs some lighting. Tell us how the site will be lit when you send the pitch details.
- Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Give us your final numbers and diets
Getting a price
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, tell us about it on our contact page.

Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.

Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.

Do you have vegan options?
Yes. We can include vegetarian and vegan fillings like black beans or spiced mushrooms.
