1st Annual Texas Monthly BBQ Family Reunion at EpicCentral
Event Details
Texas’s barbecue community is like a family, and, as in many big families, members can go many years without seeing one another. This event will bring together top barbecue legends from across the state for an evening of community, two-steppin’, and smoky deliciousness under the stars on September 27!

Hi, I would like to get information for this event. I am with a local State Farm office, and would like to table at your events.

Do we need to bring lawn chairs for this event? Is it located near Jambox? We’ve never been to Epic Central before and are unsure what to expect as far as location, seating, etc etc. Thanks so much!!!
Yes, lawn chairs are recommended. They do provide a little bit of seating, but you’ll be better off bringing your own. EpicCentral is located off State Highway 161 just north of Interstate 20. You can park near Epic Waters off Arkansas Lane or in the parking lot next to the restaurant and hotels off the southbound access road to Highway 161. The event will take place on the opposite side of the main lake, adjacent to the Jambox stage.
Hello, is there a way to purchase any VIP tickets?
Unfortunately, it looks like the VIP tickets are sold out! We’re expecting a great crowd, but I’m sure there will still be plenty of great barbecue to fill your tray. Look forward to seeing you there!
