Food Truck Catering for Large Scale Events in Santa Barbara
From the Summer Solstice Parade on State Street to Gaucho game days at UCSB, large scale events in Santa Barbara live and die by the food they serve. Gone are the days when promoters had to wrestle with pop-up tents, extension cords, and temporary kitchens. Modern food truck catering for large scale events in Santa Barbara brings fully self-contained gourmet kitchens right to the Funk Zone, Shoreline Park, or the Santa Barbara Bowl parking lot—no extra permits or power drops required.
Best Food Trucks curates a fleet that fits the exact vibe of the American Riviera. Need sizzling street tacos for Old Spanish Days Fiesta? Book the beloved Tacos Pipeye or crowd-pleasing Taqueria Mena. Want bold Latin flavors for a concert at the Bowl? We’ll roll in Maravilla Latin Cuisine to plate arepas and arroz con pollo that turn dinner into a celebration.
Craving something different for your corporate retreat at the Ritz-Carlton Bacara? Yummy Bird can fry up crispy chicken sandwiches with a Korean-Mexican twist, while Gloria’s Gourmet Kitchen turns out artisanal tacos that pair perfectly with a Pacific sunset.
Whether you’re feeding 500 runners at the Santa Barbara Half Marathon or 5,000 art lovers at the Harbor & Seafood Festival, our team handles scheduling, on-site logistics, and mobile ordering so lines stay short and guests stay happy. If you’re planning a festival, wedding, or sporting event, let Best Food Trucks provide the ultimate Santa Barbara large event food truck catering experience—so you can focus on the fun while we fire up the flavor.

From De la Guerra Plaza to the Cabrillo waterfront, guests can pull out their phones, choose their favorite Santa Barbara food truck, and receive a text the moment their tri-tip torta or Baja fish taco is ready.
Hosting a concert at the Santa Barbara Bowl or a sunset yoga festival at Leadbetter Beach? Drop a pre-order link in your ticket confirmation email so attendees can lock in a specific pickup slot before gates even open. Our platform was built for high-frequency ordering, so whether you’re serving 300 wine lovers during harvest season or 10,000 Fiesta revelers, every transaction is fast, secure, and seamless.

Fat Boys Food Truck catered our CEO’s 25th anniversary celebration, and they were fantastic from start to finish! The team was punctual, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Our staff had great things to say about how delicious everything was — the food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. We were pleasantly surprised by the variety of options; we were expecting just burgers but were thrilled to see chicken tenders, wraps, and salads as well. Everyone found something they loved! Thank you, Fat Boys, for helping make our event such a success. We’ll definitely keep you in mind for future celebrations!

Good size pizza, tasty pies. Cauliflower crust was good. Hard to have a hot pizza by the time we walked home.

Some of the best barbecue I have had. Hands down the best food I have had from a food truck. The Mac and cheese was delicious and the portions were large!
