Working with your venue
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
A hog roast or other catering?
For a Christmas fair, a hog roast stall is one of the most popular hot-food options. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why us?
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
Read our pricing and the cost guide.
Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Your questions about a hog roast for your Christmas party in Hampden Park
Can you roast near the sea around Hampden Park?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Could you cook in Princes Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes, a hog roast is a popular stall at Christmas fairs. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Is it too cold for a hog roast?
Yes, the roast always cooks outdoors under cover. Guests will want somewhere warm and dry to eat.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.

Hampden Park in December: what to know
Hampden Park is about 1 mile north-west of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. Hosts in Hampden Park book us for Christmas parties of all sizes. We bring hog roasts to 289 places in East Sussex. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 18 miles away.
A winter fair at a school like Heron Park Primary Academy gets dark early, so hot food is popular. Christmas fairs at a church such as St Mary's Church can book a hog roast stall. Hampden Park is within about 6 miles of the South Downs National Park, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route. The coast is within about 3 miles of Hampden Park, and winter sea winds can be bitter, so plan somewhere warm for guests to eat.
Anywhere in BN22, BN21 and BN23, we can bring the roaster to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean a Christmas party in a garden on Port Road, Court Road and Brand Road or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. Being close to the A22 and A2280, Hampden Park is easy for us to reach with the roaster.
