Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
