Live entertainment hits the stage every night, celebrating local musicians and bands. The competition is fierce but friendly between the teams that are all competing for the title of grand champion and over $10,000 prize money. Watch as they take on one another to prepare the best of lamb, beef, chicken and pork. There are plenty of vendors, competitions, music and tasting to take in at this unique festival offering the best of BBQ in all of Alberta.
