Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Des Moines
From the bustling concourses outside Wells Fargo Arena to the open lawns of Water Works Park, Des Moines knows how to throw a party. Nothing fuels a crowd better than a lineup of local food trucks serving fresh, hot meals right from the window. Modern food truck kitchens are fully self-contained, so your festival, concert, or marathon at Gray’s Lake can skip the messy tent setup, extra permits, and long power runs that older concessions required.
Best Food Trucks brings turn-key food truck catering to every corner of Central Iowa. Whether you’re planning a 50-truck spread for the Des Moines Arts Festival or feeding tailgaters before an Iowa Cubs game at Principal Park, we coordinate a curated mix of vendors that keeps lines short and guests smiling. Large scale event catering in Des Moines has never been easier—or tastier.
Looking for crowd-pleasing Mexican flavors? Our network features local favorites like El Taco Guapo, Tacos Degollado, Tacos La Barca D.C., Ninas Tacos, and Taqueria La Esperanza. From sizzling al pastor to street-style carne asada, these trucks deliver authentic dishes that keep fair-goers coming back between concert sets and cornhole rounds.
No matter the headcount—5,000 runners at the Dam to Dam or 30,000 music lovers at 80/35—Best Food Trucks provides seamless scheduling, on-site support, and reliable service. Book Des Moines food truck catering for your next large scale event today and let us turn meal breaks into a main attraction.
Skip the Line at Your Des Moines Mega-Event
Nothing says “Iowa Nice” like letting your guests relax instead of standing in a winding food line outside Wells Fargo Arena or along the Grand Concourse at the Iowa State Fairgrounds. Best Food Trucks’ cutting-edge online ordering platform lets your Des Moines attendees browse menus, pay, and tip right from their phones—then enjoy the show until a text alerts them that their pork tenderloin or vegan Buddha bowl is hot and ready.
Planning a sunrise start for the Dam to DSM or a full day of music at 80/35? Send out a pre-order link with ticket confirmations so runners and rockers can lock in a pickup time before the first guitar riff. Our system is engineered for true large-scale events—handling thousands of simultaneous orders without a hiccup—so food trucks stay focused on cooking while crowds stay focused on your program.
For food truck catering for large scale events in Des Moines, online ordering isn’t a perk; it’s a game-changer. Pair Best Food Trucks’ tech with Des Moines’ best mobile kitchens and watch wait times disappear, sales rise, and guest satisfaction soar.

excellent food!!! I did like being able to order online and then just go pick it up. The food had a great presentation to it. I didn't want corn so they left it out. I posted pictures of it on Facebook and everybody said it looks really good. It was super delicious!!

Food was very good and our guests enjoyed it. However, the wait for food orders was 35 to 45 minutes. Thankfully we also had an ice cream truck that guests could visit and have their ice cream while they waited for their lunch order.

How fresh my sandwich still was even though I was late. Great flavor, and the lady who helped me with sauces was great. She had lovely service, and spoke to me by name.

Customer service, the food, the atmosphere. They stayed during a storm, on top of all that did I say the food was great? Because it's soo good!
