Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in New Orleans

From jazz-filled block parties in the Marigny to packed Saints tailgates outside the Caesars Superdome, New Orleans knows how to throw a crowd-pleasing celebration. The quickest way to keep those crowds happy is with food truck catering that captures the city’s legendary flavors. Modern food trucks roll up with fully self-contained commercial kitchens—no extra tents, power drops, or long build-outs required—so your festival, parade staging area, or corporate convention can start servin’ faster than you can say “laissez les bons temps rouler.”

Best Food Trucks specializes in coordinating multiple trucks for large scale events in New Orleans. Want real-deal Cajun comfort food? Invite Creole Tomateaux or Kingdom Cafe 7003. Need Latin flair for a late-night crowd on Frenchmen Street? La Cocinita NOLA has you covered with arepas, tacos, and plantains. Round things out with smoky barbecue from the locally owned NeauxLA RolLA or grab a bowl of gumbo “on the geaux” from Kenny's Cajun & Creole Cuisine on the Geaux. Your guests will enjoy a true Crescent City tasting tour without ever leaving the venue.

Whether you’re organizing a 50-truck food village for Jazz Fest–sized crowds or a handful of gourmet rigs for a riverfront wedding, our team handles menu curation, onsite logistics, and city permitting. With Best Food Trucks orchestrating the lineup, your large scale event catering in New Orleans will be as memorable as a second-line parade—and a whole lot easier to manage.

Skip the Line and Let the Good Times Roll

Nothing kills a Crescent City vibe faster than a long food line. Best Food Trucks fixes that with our cutting-edge online ordering system built for large-scale events in New Orleans. From Mardi Gras balls at the Hyatt to Voodoo Fest crowds in City Park, guests can browse every participating food truck on their phone, place an order, and get a text when their gumbo, po-boy, or muffuletta is hot and ready. No more queuing, just cruisin’.

Planning a conference at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center? Email attendees a pre-order link so they can lock in a specific pickup time before the keynote even starts. Throwing a Jazz Fest–style street party in Mid-City? Our platform processes thousands of high-frequency orders without breaking a sweat, keeping jambalaya flowing and second-line dancers moving.

Food truck catering for large-scale events in New Orleans plus Best Food Trucks’ online ordering equals happy guests and smoother operations. Let us handle the tech and the tastes, so you can keep the spotlight on the music, the culture, and the laissez-faire fun that makes NOLA legendary.

The brisket melt is absolutely delicious. We loved the seasoning on the fresh cut fries. This is definitely our favorite sandwich truck that comes to Talavera.

Second time trying BFT and i like how quick they get orders ready. This is our first time trying the truffalo pizza and it's one of my favorites now.

I was just a little disappointed that they didn't have the chess pie that I had ordered. The red beans and rice were really good.

The turkey burger was good. I don't eat onions and have allergies to that so I scraped them off. There wasn't a space to request ti have them removed. Perhaps, an "instructions" space can be added for that particular burger as well. Many have allergies to foods. Thank you!🙂

Truck was great, would like a lid for the pudding to carry a little easier. And would like more trucks with healthier options
