Again this year, in lieu of food trucks and meal vouchers, teams will be allowed to bring any outside food to the event!
This change is meant to control costs for teams, reduce long lines, and provide greater flexibility to have the foods you prefer, whether it’s a full spread, sandwiches from your favorite place, or granola bars/snacks.
Please see below for a summary of important information regarding food and beverage options at the Biz Dash.
Teams will be allowed to bring their own food and snacks to the event on Lou Fusz Plaza. Team captains are welcome to work with a restaurant, vendor or caterer of choice to coordinate food for their team as long as they have a team meeting space reserved.
Any teams wanting to bring in food must have a team meeting space reserved. The 10×20 (Tier 3), 20×20 (Tier 2) and 20×40 (Tier 1) team meeting spaces all include one or more 8-ft tables.
The 8-ft table in Tier 4-Option B (10×10) is intended to give teams space to set up food they plan to serve. The cocktail tables in Tier 4-Option A (10×10) will be a better fit for teams that don’t plan to bring food into the event. If you had previously selected Option A, but would like to switch to Option B to allow more space for food setup, please let us know so we can update your team meeting space settings.
The Energizer Park outdoor concession stand (in the middle of Lou Fusz Plaza) will have hot dogs, nachos, pretzels and chicken sandwiches available for purchase. Please note there will only be one food concession stand open so please plan accordingly or bring your own food/snacks to avoid long lines. Credit card only (no cash accepted).
**For sponsors with team meeting spaces inside Energizer Park on the upper concourse, the Sports Commission staff will reach out to the team captains to coordinate food and beverage orders.
Personal beverages, alcohol and coolers will NOT be allowed.
Participants are allowed to bring reusable water bottles (no plastic allowed) to the event and there will be water stations scattered throughout the team village for refills.
Must have a team meeting space reserved to pre-order beverages. Beverages will be delivered to your team meeting space in a cooler when the Spectrum Team Village opens at 5pm.
Beverages will also be available for purchase at satellite bars (credit card only) throughout the Spectrum Team Village. Beer, wine, canned cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks including Gatorade will be offered at all bar locations.

Teams that purchased a starter pack will receive one parking pass for the CITY garage at Olive & 20th. Please use this garage to unload food for your team meeting space. Passes will be distributed during packet pick-up.
If you’re ordering delivery, a drop-off lane will be available on Olive along the north side of Energizer Park (between 20th and 21st). Please make sure someone from your team is there to meet the driver as soon as they arrive—drivers cannot wait and will be asked to circle the block if no one is present.
Drivers should travel east on Olive and enter at the designated drop-off point. Staff will be onsite to help keep traffic moving efficiently.
