Enter the Pan Am Athletes’ Village and feast your eyes on the fare inside a 6,500 square foot multi-use tent, hosting the Pan Am athletes and their appetites. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Food Hall.
Open 24 hours a day, athletes can come, eat and go as they please. The temporary dining tent is expected to serve 500,000 meals, averaging 21,000 per day.
