The Bud Light Red Dirt BBQ and Music Festival presented by Tyler Ford celebrates two things Texans love the most: barbecue and live music. This week several key dates were released for 2018's five year anniversary celebration.

While the lineup has yet to be revealed (that'll be on January 25), and tickets aren't on sale yet (February 1), now is the time to start making plans. You are invited to join us Saturday, May 5 in Downtown Tyler as folks from all over Texas and beyond converge to sample smoked meats from more than 20 of Texas' most celebrated barbecue joints and watch live music all day and night on the brick streets.

It's never too early to save the dates:

  1. Lineup reveal: January 25, 2018
  2. Tickets go on sale: February 1, 2018
  3. Our fifth anniversary party: May 5, 2018
