Whether your event is at Heritage Park and Wheeling Park District facilities, food truck catering adds a unique touch. Here's what to know about booking trucks for Wheeling venues.

Always confirm food truck access with your venue in advance. Some Wheeling venues have designated truck parking areas, while others may need approval from building management.

"Food truck was good! The individuals running the truck were hospitable, they arrived early, and all of our guests were satisfied. We got tacos, churros, and elote. My only critique is that the chicken tacos were incredibly dry. The al pastor and asada tacos were much better."
