ONE TICKET. ENDLESS BARBECUE. AN UNFORGETTABLE DAY.
Holy Smokes BBQ Fest will be returning for its 6th annual event on November 14th at Riverfront Park.
Every November, Holy Smokes brings together more than 50 of the country’s best pitmasters and chefs at the beautiful Riverfront Park in North Charleston. A one-of-a-kind barbecue celebration, Holy Smokes is a day built around the smokers with great music, cold drinks and the people who make barbecue culture so special - all while raising money for some incredible causes.
Year six is bringing more smoke, more flavor and more amazing moments - all in support of Hogs for the Cause, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Charleston and families affected by pediatric brain cancer.





2026 PITMASTER & CHEF LINEUP COMING SOON!
Your ticket includes ALL YOU CAN EAT access to four distinct barbecue villages - Texas, Traditional, New School and Coastal - each serving up a unique taste of regional style and skill.
