Flexible Rental Options
We understand that every event is unique, which is why we offer flexible rental options for our kitchen:
- Half Kitchen Rental: You can rent half of the kitchen, sharing the space with another group.
- Full Kitchen Rental: If you prefer to have the entire kitchen to yourself, you can opt to rent the whole space. This gives you full access to all the facilities from the start of your event day.
In addition, the kitchen comes equipped with 3-level kitchen tier carts for easy serving and food transportation. Conveniently located in the back service hallway, the kitchen provides easy access to the ballrooms and is adjacent to our loading dock, making unloading and loading a breeze.
Freedom of Choice for Catering
At the Statesville Civic Center, we believe in giving our clients the freedom to choose.
Unlike many venues that restrict catering options, we allow you to:
- Choose Any Caterer: You're free to bring in any caterer that suits your tastes and needs.
- Bring Your Own Food: For those who prefer a personal touch, you can bring your own prepared food.
- Cook Onsite: Our kitchen is fully equipped for you to cook your meals on the day of your event.
This flexibility is particularly appreciated by groups with cultural food traditions, allowing them to celebrate in a way that's meaningful to them. Finding a venue that offers this level of freedom, especially one with a kitchen of this size, is truly rare.
