Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Balance the food line-up
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Show allergens at the stall
We follow the organiser’s site rules, including when vehicles can move.
