Lone Star BBQ and Music Festival in Irving Brings BBQ From All Over Texas

Cue the music, and the ‘cue. There’s a delicious and tuneful event coming up this Saturday (June 18th) in Irving, and tickets would make a great early Father’s Day gift. (Why give a tie when you can give Dad a tasting tour of Texas’ best BBQ joints all without leaving town?)

The first ever Lone Star BBQ and Music Festival will pair BBQ from all over the state with wall-to-wall live music including a special appearance by the iconic disco band Le Freak. There are fifteen notable BBQ joints (see full list below) serving up ribs, brisket and more and 7 bands, all in one place – Irving’s Levy Event Plaza overlooking Lake Carolyn.

Update: With high temperatures expected over the weekend, the Festival is adding a tent with mister fans with tables and chairs where attendees can eat, drink and relax.  Visit Irving will be providing free cold water bottles, and there will also be wet towels and portable fans on hand.

Tickets begin at $35 for access to the concerts and food for sale from BBQ restaurants and food trucks. There are also special super VIP early access packages with unlimited BBQ sampling, access to a VIP bar with first drink free, and primo concert positioning. Why not treat Dad to an unforgettable early Father’s Day?

Everyone is encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets and settle in for a fun day.
