agree  Germaine: on n'utilise pas "services de traiteur" en France? // Merci.

  -> En loge, les deux.

agree  Eliza Hall: @Germaine: catering in this context just means they serve food, normally off a set menu. "Traiteur" to me sounds more personalized/specialized, like the type of business you hire to create a personalized menu and serve food/drinks for your wedding.

Reference: Skybox

Reference information:
This will help make clear how "catering" relates to skyboxes.

"The luxury box (or skybox) and club seating constitute the most exclusive class of seating in arenas and stadiums, and generate much higher revenues than regular seating. Club ticketholders often receive exclusive access to an indoor part of the venue through private club entrances, to areas containing special restaurants, bars, merchandise stands, and lounge areas of the venue that are not otherwise available to regular ticketholders."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luxury_box

IOW a skybox is an indoor seating area at a sports arena, where you can watch the game in comfort as if you're in a nice living room. Food/drinks service is typically part of the deal; you can eat while watching the game.
