AN EXCITING WEEKEND EXPERIENCE FILLED WITH LAUGHTER, MUSIC, FOOD, FUN AND FELLOWSHIP
About this Event

When it comes to food selections, BBQ is the most common choice shared by every culture in America. From conversations to perception, BBQ has become “EVERYBODY’S FAVORITE”

According to researchers the most popular gathering within the American culture is the traditional cook-out. Studies have shown that more people prefer an outdoor atmosphere when it comes to music, food & fellowship. The question now becomes how do we merge the two favorites into one great experience? With this thought in mind, it is our sheer delight to present to you “EVERYBODY’S FAVORITE BBQ & HOT SAUCE FESTIVAL”.

Everybody’s Favorite BBQ & Hot Sauce Festival is an inviting diverse event that highlights the aroma of America’s best barbecue vendors while bringing together a multi-cultural outdoor social setting that is sure to evoke a spirit of love, unity, and memories among all those in attendance. Our festival is a 3-Day event featuring a 70’s Disco Party, EDM Fest, BBQ & Hot Sause Competition, Top 40 Day Party, Ole Skool Block Party, Country Fest, and Rock Fest.

Everybody’s Favorite BBQ & Hot Sauce Festival / Guardian Kare Residential Suites, is a not-for-profit organization that Hosts fundraisers nationwide to support local veteran hospitals with transitional services for homeless veterans.
