The Palm Springs Air Museum is one of the most dramatic event venues in the desert. Surrounded by vintage WWII aircraft, with panoramic views of the San Jacinto Mountains, it’s a setting that makes any event unforgettable — and it deserves food that lives up to the atmosphere.
Big Smoke Trailers delivers BBQ catering near Palm Springs Air Museum and throughout the Palm Springs area. Whether it’s a corporate event in the hangar, a private celebration, or a milestone birthday with a view, we bring the slow-smoked flavor. Drop-off catering, full-service setup, bartending — we scale to what you need.
