Food Truck Catering for Large-Scale Events in Wilmington, NC

From the Azalea Festival on Front Street to summer concerts at Greenfield Lake Amphitheater, Wilmington knows how to throw a party—and locals expect memorable food to match the coastal vibe. Best Food Trucks makes large-scale event catering in Wilmington, NC simple by rolling in fully self-contained mobile kitchens that set up in minutes, not hours. No extra permits for pop-up tents, no generators snaking across the Riverwalk: just hot grills, cold freezers, and happy guests.

Our fleet covers every craving. Cool the Carolina heat with a handcrafted Italian ice from MarveLicious Water Ice, then follow the smoky aroma to The Plum Pit for slow-cooked barbecue that would make any Cape Fear pitmaster proud. Need a lighter option for your UNCW crowd? Sip a fresh-pressed juice from Nude Food. Burgers more your style? Williams Deluxe slings seared-to-order patties faster than the Battleship North Carolina fired a broadside. For island flavor, finish with jerk chicken or plantains from Hummingbird Island Cuisine.

Whether you’re feeding 200 at a Port City corporate picnic or 20,000 at a Wrightsville Beach surf competition, Best Food Trucks coordinates multiple vendors, manages lines with our preorder & pickup app, and supplies the diverse menus your attendees demand. When it comes to food truck catering for large-scale events in Wilmington, NC, we’re the crew you can count on—from booking to final cleanup.

Skip the Line and Keep the Wilmington Vibes Rolling

From Live Oak Bank Pavilion concerts to Saturday marathons along the Riverwalk, Wilmington crowds don’t like to stand around. With Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering system, your guests can grab a phone, place an order, and get right back to the music, race, or fireworks show. No weaving through a maze of tents, no guessing which line is the quickest—just a text alert when their shrimp po’ boy or Carolina smash burger is hot and ready.

Planning a large-scale event on the Cape Fear River? Send attendees a preorder link days in advance and let them choose a pickup window that works between artist sets or surf heats at Wrightsville Beach. Our platform is built to handle the high-frequency rush that comes with 10,000 hungry festivalgoers, so ticket scanners—not food lines—remain your only bottleneck. Food truck catering for large-scale events in Wilmington, NC plus mobile ordering equals shorter lines, happier crowds, and an unforgettable Port City experience.

Comments from Inspira Senior VP: The staff loved it. The vendor even made sandwiches & waffles brought them to OR staff that couldn’t get to the truck. They came from Morris County in north jersey. Very pleasant & accommodating. Please let them know of the great service

All food was great. Boom boom shrimp was especially good. Cook was understaffed but did a remarkable job under pressure. Kudos.

Friendly, family like service and delicious pasta! I also appreciate the dressing for the Caesar salad being put on the side, so salad does not get soggy.

Amazing burgers and great value! True smash burger that gives that burger feel. Comeback sauce took it over the top 11/10

Papa Arepas was a big hit at my office. They arrived with plenty of time to set up, food ordering on their digital kiosk was easy and convenient, and the food was superb! We will definitely be having them back.
