    You just ring the organisers and book one before they sell out the spaces.

    Most of them are retained year to year so it can be hard to get a free pitch thats allocated towards the type of food/product you are offering, also they are much happier dealing with established well known companies, the last thing they want is a food poisoning outbreak/bad publicity etc.

    whats the difference between a stand and a pitch?
    stand-- o2 type sales promotion??
    pitch-- burger van??

    I heard "anecdotally" that they dont make great money due to the number of competitors and large fees charged. The 1 service I thought may work would be a phone charging service on the campsites
