The space the bar needs
As a planning allowance, ask for roughly 8m × 4m of level, firm ground — enough for the trailer, a serving area in front of the hatches and a clear path for guests. That is a planning figure, not a certified dimension for each trailer: the Bar Zone flagship and the compact Nom Bango have different footprints, and the exact clearance is confirmed when we see your venue. We don't publish a minimum gate width or a turning radius — we ask for access photos instead.
Getting the trailer in
Both units are towed dual-axle trailers, so the route from the road to the setup spot matters as much as the spot itself. Share what you can about the entrance: the gate, the driveway or track, any tight corners, and the turning room at the end. Access photos taken from the road, through the gate and at the proposed setup position are the quickest way to confirm it works. If access is tight, tell us early — Nom Bango's compact footprint fits tighter sites, but no venue is guaranteed until we've seen it.
Where to set up
Tell us where you'd like the bar and when you'd like service to start and end. The setup position should be level, on firm ground, and clear enough for a queue to form without blocking a walkway. Arrival time depends on access, travel and how much setup the bar needs; we agree the service window and the arrival window in the quote. A request is not a reservation — we confirm availability and access before any date is held.
What your own power solves — and what it doesn't
Both trailers carry their own solar arrays, lithium battery storage and a generator backup, so we don't need a venue plug point to run the bar. That solves the power question. It does not solve everything else: safe vehicle access still has to work, severe weather can still stop an outdoor setup, a card machine still needs mobile-data signal to process payments, and any applicable event or venue permissions still need to be arranged. Off-grid power is not a licence or a weather guarantee.

Weather, safety and your venue contact
Outdoor setups need a rain or wind plan. If conditions become unsafe — severe weather, an unstable surface, or access that is no longer passable — we may stop or move service. Tell us about any contingency the venue offers, and any end-time or noise restrictions from neighbours or the venue. Give us a name and number for someone who will be on site or reachable on the day — the venue manager, event coordinator or a contact who knows the gate and the ground. That helps us confirm access and timing without chasing details on the day.
