KOKE will be back at BBQ Austin this year, and we’re bringing tents, teams, and a full weekend of live music with us! Our setup includes the Dirty Swamp Cookers, Here4Beer, and the Come & Take It tent, a solid lineup that always draws a crowd and keeps the grills running hot.
On Friday night, March 6th, we’ll kick things off with a 90’s dancehall throwback from People’s Choice. Then on Saturday, March 7th, Mike Ryan takes the stage with special guests Kin Faux. It’s a strong weekend of BBQ and Texas music, and we’re looking forward to seeing everyone out there.
For those new to the event, BBQ Austin takes place at the Travis County Expo Center and is widely considered one of the best BBQ cook offs in Texas. Teams come from all over the state to compete and show what they can do. While team registration is already closed for 2026, spectators can enjoy BBQ samples, live music, family-friendly carnival rides, a petting zoo, pony rides, vendors, and more.
Save the dates now and we will share more details as we get closer, including final schedules and how to find the KOKE tents on site.
