Event Management can assist with all of your dining needs while visiting Duke University. Partnered with Duke Dining Services, we can offer a range of options from your typical board plan, a flexible dining plan, or a catered meal on or off-campus. Our goal is to provide sponsors with a variety of options and the highest quality of service possible.

The summer Board Plan provides participants a full meal plan of three meals per daily at a discounted rate. Board Plan meals are served all-you-care-to-eat at cafeterias on East and West Campuses. Menus feature daily selections of entrees and desserts, a salad bar, sandwiches and choice of beverages. Rates for the Board Plan are determined by group size and age of participants. Rate sheets are available upon request.

Sponsors may choose a FLEX Plan for participants as an alternative to the summer Board Plan. FLEX is set up as a declining balance account to which funds are deposited for use at dining locations throughout campus, university stores, vending machines, and laundry facilities. FLEX Plan participants cannot be accommodated at Board Plan facilities under most circumstances, however, several other dining locations are open during the summer months. A complete list of dining facilities open during the summer months is available upon request.

Event Management offers a range of catering options for your program, from intimate dinners to a real Carolina barbecue. We can cater any event, no matter the size or place. Please see our catering section for more detailed information.
