You can feel great about catering at the Convention Center as well. The culinary team embodies San Jose’s Climate Smart initiative by sourcing the freshest local ingredients from a 150-mile radius. The McEnery Convention Center is one of the few West Coast convention centers to compost food waste, and it provides only certified-compostable, carbon-neutral, plant-based meal packaging products and serveware. The team also donates and delivers meals to local food banks and shelters.
Once the day’s events are done, your guests can step right outside the Convention Center to venture out into San Jose’s vibrant Downtown. They’ll find world-class cuisine, a thriving art scene, and cultural attractions including The Tech Interactive and the San Jose Museum of Art.
