Forno Pizza | Festival Catering Across the UK
We offer Wood-Fired Pizza, Smokehouse BBQ & Burger Concepts Built for High-Volume Events
Festival Catering at Scale — With Quality at the Centre
We’re a South Coast hospitality business with over a decade of experience bringing handcrafted, fire-led food to the UK festival circuit. What began with a homemade pizza oven has grown into a thriving pizzeria and a multi-concept festival operation capable of serving tens of thousands of customers each season.
Today, we operate dedicated festival concepts designed for speed, reliability, and standout flavour:
Wood-Fired Sourdough Pizza
Smokehouse BBQ
Loaded Smash Burgers (BBQ Burger Bros)
Each operates independently, with its own full setup, team, and menu — allowing organisers to select the concept that fits their event best.
Our Festival Experience
We’ve traded at many major UK festivals, including:
Glastonbury • Download • Isle of Wight • Reading & Leeds • Latitude • Camp Bestival • Wireless and more
We operate multiple pizza trailers, high-capacity service lines, and teams trained in fast-paced festival environments.

🔥 WOOD-FIRED SOURDOUGH PIZZA
Authentic, fast, and consistently one of our most popular festival foods.
Real Sourdough. Real Fire. Real Craft.
Our pizza begins with dough we make fresh on-site every day using just flour, sea salt, and water — nothing else. It’s fermented for at least 24 hours, creating a dough that’s light, flavourful, and naturally easy to digest.
Each pizza is:
Hand-stretched to order
Topped with local, high-quality ingredients
Blast-cooked at 450°C+ in wood-fired ovens
Crisp, blistered, light, and full of flavour
Festival-goers love the quality, freshness, and theatre of live-fire cooking.
🔥 BBQ BURGER BROS — SMOKEHOUSE BBQ & LOADED BURGERS
Our upgraded BBQ concept: bold flavour, handmade craft, and serious festival presence.
It Starts With the Smoke
At BBQ Burger Bros, everything revolves around real wood and long cooking times. Our oak smoker runs day and night back-of-house, slow-smoking:
Brisket for 12+ hours
Outdoor-reared pork until tender and pull-apart soft
Every rub, sauce, pickle, slaw, and marinade is made from scratch — no shortcuts.
Farm-Raised Quality
Our meats come from Fossil Farm on the Jurassic Coast — outdoor-reared, hand-selected, and butchered by Jurassic Coast Farm Shop.
Angus beef grazed for 18 months, dry-aged 28 days
Outdoor-reared pork smoked low and slow
Sustainable sourcing with full traceability
This is festival BBQ with substance.
Festival Menu Highlights
For events needing a fast, crowd-pleasing burger concept, we offer:
Smokehouse Burgers (Angus beef, brisket-stack burgers, pulled pork, Smokehouse XL)
Loaded Fries (brisket, Texan pork, chilli cheese, vegan options)
Full Cookout Boxes
Classic Sides
Vegan & Veggie BBQ (mushroom burgers, pulled jackfruit, plant-based sauces)
The Setup: Smokehouse Theatre
Our BBQ concept is built around our restored Citroën HY Van, complete with rustic wood, black-and-red branding, live smoke, and a bold festival presence.
Quick service, high turnover, consistent quality.
