Full-Service Catering for Every Event
A well-executed catering program reflects directly on your event, and at the Lancaster County Convention Center, the culinary team behind every meal takes that seriously. From continental breakfasts and working lunches to formal plated dinners, wedding receptions, and holiday parties, your program gets a full-service team that works with you to build a menu around your event format, your guests, and your budget.
All food and beverage is provided exclusively through the LCCC catering department, which means one point of contact, consistent quality across every meal, and a team that knows the facility as well as they know the menu.
