The BBQ & Beer Roadshow

The BBQ & Beer Roadshow, a mega celebration of meat and fire and quality craft beer, is back again this year at Redland Showgrounds on Jun 29-30.

A drawcard for locals and the perfect day trip from Brisbane city, The BBQ & Beer Roadshow offers a rare chance to kick back on the grass with a hunk of smokin' hot BBQ meat while sipping on some of Australia (and the world)’s most delicious craft brews and listening to live rockabilly music.

The family-friendly day and night event offers a mouth-watering selection of barbecued meats from around 15 different BBQ food vendors as well as some 20 different bars peddling more than 100 different beers from both Australian and international breweries, along with an onsite fun zone for kids.

Barbecue vendors will be serving up a carnivore’s fantasy smorgasbord of everything smoky and sticky; from slow-cooked brisket to finger-lickin’ ribs, pulled pork to gourmet smoked sausages. Aficionados and first-timers alike can also learn the tricks of the barbecuing and brewing trade from the best in the business at one of the BBQ or beer masterclasses throughout the day.

An awesome line-up of Queensland’s best Rockabilly bands will be performing live to round off the event which promises to be a great way to spend a lazy winter day by the bay. Meanwhile, the fun zone will have plenty of activities for kids of all ages including a mechanical bull, an animal farm, human foosball, 2 jumping castles and various giant games. There will also be a face painter and balloon artist to keep the little ones entertained.

Nice to know - A $15,000 competition prize pool will also be up for grabs as up to 50 of Australia’s best BBQ crews fire up the festival showcasing their talents across 6 categories in the BBQ Arena competing for the crown of Queensland BBQ Championships.There will also be a Kids Q – Burger cook-off for those budding cooks.
