How to organize catering for special events or receptions

Organizers of special events or receptions should contact the caterer for the Conference. It should be possible to organize lunchbags or a buffet style meal inside the room - provided that the room is left in a suitable state for consequent meetings.

It should be noted that the organizers must ensure that the rooms are cleared of any catering at least 15 minutes before the allotted deadline for their event. This means that events scheduled to end at 15:00 must be cleared of food, beverages or utensils by 14:45 and similarly for the evening events.

The Conference caterer is:
Ms. Maria Jose Gutierrez/Mr. Leon Starizelsky
External Catering Sheraton
