Buffet, yes. But, the makeup of it really depends on the kind of event.
For fighting events, people often try to go a little heavier on
protein, salt and water content foods. For more genteel indoor events,
people may try for a very period spread with many neat things. If there
is no feast, people will often make the dayboard a little more
extravagent. Cold-weather events will often provide lots of hot soups
and things to keep people warm as well as fed.
As for is it a meal or just munchies, I'd say it's usually meant as a
light meal served buffet style. It's more than munchies, but not quite
a fill-your-plate and sit down for a big meal kind of thing.
