After a prolonged hiatus, the annual BBQ fest in Kansas City is back in action, ready to treat fans of barbecued meat and joyous festivities. The Q BBQ Fest aims to quench the city’s thirst for tradition and history, slotted for the upcoming weekend.
The venue for the scrumptious gathering is Lot M and Founder’s Plaza, situated conveniently between Kaufman Stadium and Arrowhead. The two-day long extravaganza will start on June 21st, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., and will pick up again from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on June 22nd.
The festival won’t just be about the food, offering a gathering platform for BBQ enthusiasts spread across the midwest. It will host an array of entertainment activities from BBQ demonstrations by some of the state’s most highly-regarded pitmasters, all the way to rib-eating contests, offering something for people of all ages.
This year, the KC Q BBQ Fest is taking a more organized approach towards entry passes. The free-to-enter, pay-as-you-go format has been sidelined, making way for three distinct ticketing options:
All tickets are specific to a particular date to ensure each attendee has their fair share of the BBQ magic.
As part of their ticket purchase, attendees are provided free parking. Taxi and rideshare services will also have access to the event’s parking lots, further enabling a smooth transition in and out of the venue.
In the interest of safety and to maintain a family-friendly atmosphere, some items are prohibited from being brought into the festival. These include outside food and drinks, professional or video cameras, glass, metal or plastic drinking vessels, balls, and umbrellas with metal tips.
Due to security measures, clear bags are recommended but not compulsory. However, any bags or strollers brought to the festival can be subjected to searches.
For enthusiasts looking to plan their festival experience, the official schedule for both the festival days has been made available. For additional information and tickets to the KC Q BBQ Fest, fans are encouraged to visit the festival’s official webpage.
Ensure your spot at one of the summer’s most looked-forward-to event, and become part of the rich, nuanced tradition of BBQ culture in Kansas City.
