The competition is fierce and the flavors rich as the battle rages on…

Welcome to the official website of the the BBQ Music Fest.

The 2025 BBQ Music Fest will be held July 25-27, 2025 at the spacious green park – Oso Viejo Community Park located in Mission Viejo, California. FREE GENERAL PARKING!

It’s a three-day BBQ extravaganza featuring live entertainment from variety of popular artists, a smokin’ food court (including non-BBQ related items), DJ and dance lessons, cantinas (serving up beer, wine and signature drinks), VIP Lounge, Wild Fork BBQ Lounge, country line dancing, local artisans, carnival rides and games, a cool critter show and critter close encounter interactive experience (Sat. and Sun.). Taste and experience firsthand the fiery chicken, pulled pork, tri-tip, pork ribs, sausages… and sides (all available for purchase) that makes barbecue so popular in the USA — all while you snap a free souvenir E-photo at the photo booth, catch a game at the live sports tent, sing your heart out at the karaoke lounge with a live band on Friday and Saturday nights, get hands-on with reptiles at the S.C.H.A.&R. Live Interactive Reptile Exhibit and more. And don’t forget to watch for our Roaming Cowboys—they’re full of mischief, laughs, and unexpected antics!

Award-winning BBQ pitmasters will make their way to the festival to battle it out against local barbecue gurus (grillers) for grand title for the Best BBQ and your vote as the People’s Choice Favorite. Trust us, the competition will be intense and the flavors rich in a fierce effort to produce the best that their secret recipes have to offer.

First place winners from seasons past are returning to battle it out among new comers as well…It’s time to grab the family, put on loose clothes, come with an empty stomach and head to the BBQ Music Fest Extravaganza, right here in Southern California.
