About This Event

Day two of the Novi BBQ Fest featuring pitmasters, live music, and family activities.

What to Expect

  • 1.Check the pitmaster lineup on the festival map and hit a couple must-tries before the lines get long. Share bites with a friend to taste more vendors.
  • 2.There are family activities, so bring the kids and scout the kid zones; the Twelve Mile Crossing layout makes it easy to wander between food and games.
  • 3.Bring a bit of cash and a card for vendors, and carry a small bag for samples; pace yourself so you can try more bites without getting full too fast.
  • 4.Park in the Fountain Walk lots or nearby garages and give yourself extra time to walk between venues as the crowd builds.
  • 5.Bring sunscreen and a light layer for the evening, wear comfy shoes, and check the live music schedule so you won’t miss your favorite act.
