Common questions in Southampton

Roughly 69 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it.
Do you come to school fairs around Southampton?

Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Send us the details, and we will reply with our availability and what we need.
When do you arrive?

Do you provide plates and napkins?
That’s confirmed with each quote. Tell us whether your venue has crockery or you’d prefer disposables and we will talk it through.
Do you need water?
Tell us what’s available at the pitch and we’ll confirm what we need. Power and water are agreed with each booking.
Can you do gluten-free food?
Yes, we offer gluten-free options, using corn tortillas. Tell us about any coeliac guests before the event so we can talk through how their food is prepared. See are corn tortillas gluten-free?

How the day works
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. Rain does not normally stop us serving, though guests will want somewhere covered to stand or sit. Christmas markets in Southampton trade in the dark from about 4:00pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. At midsummer, daylight lasts until roughly 9:25pm.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
- Tacos, burritos and more are served to order while the event is open.
- We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
