Why Telefèric for events
From inquiry to invoice you work with one events coordinator. Dietary requests, AV, layout, timing — handled, so your team just shows up.
Spanish paella cooked to order, jamón ibérico de bellota imported from Spain, tapas built by Executive Chef Oscar Cabezas. The food carries the room.
The Padrosa family opened the first Telefèric in Sant Cugat in 1992. The same hospitality philosophy runs every event we host in La Jolla today.
