Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Raleigh-Durham

From Wolfpack tailgates outside Carter-Finley Stadium to summer concerts at Red Hat Amphitheater, big gatherings in the Triangle are legendary—and they deserve food that’s just as memorable. Modern food truck catering brings full, self-contained commercial kitchens right to your venue, eliminating the permits, generators and lengthy set-ups that old-school tent vendors required.

Best Food Trucks specializes in coordinating multiple trucks for large-scale events across Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill and everywhere in between. Whether you’re hosting a biotech conference in Research Triangle Park, a packed festival at Dorothea Dix Park, or a sold-out game at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, we’ll curate a lineup that keeps crowds happy and lines moving fast.

Looking for bold Mexican flavors? Poblanos Tacos can roll up with scratch-made salsas and sizzling al pastor. Craving a Mediterranean spin? Mama Voula’s serves authentic Greek gyros that remind Tar Heels of Franklin Street eats. For Southern comfort with a gourmet twist, Shmack’n Plates Bistro plates shrimp & grits and brisket sliders that wow crowds at PNC Arena. Need something adventurous for a downtown Durham block party? La Republica fuses Mexican street food with local North Carolina ingredients. And if your State Fair-sized audience wants classic tacos done right, El Jefecito delivers them faster than you can say “y’all.”

With hundreds of vetted trucks in our Triangle network, Best Food Trucks can handle breakfast to late-night snacks, manage multiple service windows to shorten wait times, and provide cashless pre-ordering right from your guests’ phones. That means more time enjoying bluegrass at IBMA or cheering on the Canes, and less time standing in line.

Ready to elevate your next large event with the best food truck catering Raleigh-Durham has to offer? Reach out to Best Food Trucks today and let us build a menu as vibrant as the Triangle itself.

Skip the Line at Your Raleigh-Durham Large-Scale Event

From Hopscotch Music Festival in downtown Raleigh to the Friday night Food Truck Rodeo on Durham Central Park, Triangle crowds don’t like to wait around—especially when the band is about to hit the stage. Best Food Trucks’ mobile ordering platform lets your guests tap in an order on their phones, roam the venue, and get a text the moment their hush-puppies or bulgogi tacos are hot.

Our system was built for high-volume events like Dreamville on the Dix Park lawn and Wolfpack tailgates outside PNC Arena. You can even push out a pre-order link days in advance so vendors know exactly how many pulled-pork sandwiches to smoke before gates open. Fewer lines, faster pick-ups, happier fans.

When you combine Raleigh-Durham’s best food truck catering for large scale events with our real-time, cashless ordering, your attendees stay focused on the keynote, the kickoff, or the encore—while still scoring exceptional eats.

I hosted an office event that was made wonderful by having Poblanos Taco Truck! The food was DELICIOUS and they were set up to serve 40 people very efficiently. Every one loved the food. Jonathan and his collegue were so friendly! Big Hit! Highly recommend.

The turkey burger was very well made and the fries were salted and spiced just right. Good crunch too.

Even though burger was a bit cold because I got there later, it had good flavor with spice level, texture was still firm and buns were not soggy or greasy

El Jefecito was so easy to work with. The tacos were delicious and the churros were out of this world. Our employees kept going back for a second Churro.

Lost my order. Had to show phone confirmation, then wait. Had 5:55 pick up time, but didn't get food until after 6:15

Brought both the fish and shrimp plates. Wish the fish plate came with slices of bread to make a sandwich but overall the food was great

The food was great and my team really enjoyed it. They were very prepared and had all of the food ready in just over an hour. Would definitely hire them again!

Frank and the crew were very friendly and accommodated those with dietary restrictions (GF, vegetarian, etc.) They even decided to set up cash payment so they could service a few other guests from another part of our organization that did not have tickets. The service was pretty fast, despite the line. The food was really good and I had several peoplke comment to me that they enjoyed the food very much. The food truck made the event a complete success, especially on this hot day! I would definitely use them again for another event and I will provide positive feedback to our property managers in hopes they will put Mama Voula's truck on our weekly Tuesday Food Truck rotation.
