Planners, venues and businesses

If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Diets, allergies and alternatives

- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
Name a contact for the day, typically locations or the production office.
