Join us for this day of summertime fun featuring an amateur BBQ competition, live music, and delicious food and drink vendors. There will also be plenty of fun to be had for the kiddos at our Piglet Playland.

This year we're celebrating 17 Years of Wicked Good BBQ, and you can find some truly BBQ and other food vendors as well as cold beer, wine, and seltzers.

You can also come rock out to some of the best acts in town:

  • Back Pocket Bourbon - 2:00 pm
  • EP8 - 3:00 pm
  • Amy Kelly and the Beaver Moon Band - 4:45
  • Whiskey Road - 7:30 pm
  • Mary Macaroni in the Piglet Playland

This year, we will once again be in downtown Glen Ellyn at the Duane Lorraine Metra Parking Lot just west of the Glen Ellyn Public Library.

This event raises thousands of dollars in support of the families facing homelessness served by Bridge Communities, so you can have a blast while supporting your neighbors in need.
