Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Traverse City
Whether you’re filling the Open Space during the National Cherry Festival, packing fans into Turtle Creek Stadium, or setting up a concert at Interlochen, one thing will make your Traverse City event unforgettable—stellar food. Modern food trucks deliver exactly that. Unlike the old-school tent kitchens that dominated Front Street fairs decades ago, today’s food trucks roll in with fully contained commercial kitchens, eliminating the headache of extra permits, generators, and marathon setup times.
Best Food Trucks partners with the area’s most popular rolling restaurants to create a vibrant “Up North” dining scene right on your event grounds. From gourmet plates to handheld comfort food, our network gives guests more choices—and shorter lines—than any traditional caterer can match. Looking for local flavor? Invite Lost Village Pierogi: “The Polished Cuban Grill” to serve authentic Polish pierogi and Cubano sandwiches, or spice things up with street-style tacos from King Wubbz. Our team will coordinate schedules, insurance, and health-department compliance so you can focus on the music, the fireworks, or the big game.
No crowd is too large for our Traverse City food truck catering service. We routinely feed thousands at the Traverse City Film Festival, Northwestern Michigan College graduations, and corporate retreats along the Lake Michigan shoreline. Best Food Trucks analyzes foot traffic, menu mix, and service speed to determine the perfect number of trucks and POS systems for your venue, ensuring that every guest is served hot, fresh food in minutes.

Skip the Line and Soak Up the Traverse City Vibes
Nothing ruins a National Cherry Festival concert or a Traverse City Pit Spitters double-header faster than standing in a 30-minute food line. Best Food Trucks solves that problem with our Traverse City–ready online ordering system. Guests pull out their phones, browse menus from every truck on site—whether that’s artisan whitefish tacos or warm cherry-apple doughnuts—and tap to order in seconds.
When the food is hot, a text alert guides them straight to the pickup window on Union Street or the outfield concourse at Turtle Creek Stadium. No lines, no guessing, just more time for air shows over West Grand Traverse Bay and sing-alongs at Interlochen.
Hosting an extra-large crowd? Send our pre-order link with your ticket confirmation so attendees can lock in a pickup time before they even hit M-72. Our platform was engineered for high-frequency ordering, meaning it can handle thousands of simultaneous transactions during fireworks night without breaking a sweat.
For large-scale event catering in Traverse City, food trucks plus Best Food Trucks’ online ordering equals happier guests, smoother traffic flow, and rave reviews long after the last cherry pit has been spit.

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.

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
