Bar arrangements include open-bar packages and cash or tab options, with details to confirm when booking. Food arrangements are flexible: organisers may bring a caterer of their choice or provide food themselves. The venue does not currently offer a full catering menu, though a limited selection of appetisers and platters is available. As there is no dedicated kitchen or prep area, planners should discuss food preparation needs in advance.

With indoor facilities, an outdoor patio and practical event equipment in one location, Lightbox Events Center offers Utica organisers a versatile setting for private celebrations and selected business events.
