Say what you want, but there are few better music and food combinations than blues and barbecue. Smoky, Southern-bred, and heavenly when done right, both blues and barbecue can be pure, sensual pleasure on the highest levels. This Saturday, October 15, you can get your fix of both at Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park for the 2nd Annual Bluz and BBQ Event.
Enjoy some of the best local and national blues acts including Roger "Hurricane" Wilson, Bluz Busters with Keith Caton, Danny Morris Band, Damon Fowler Group, Hadden Sayers, and Blues Sharks.
Barbecue from Holy Hog BBQ, Slice of Tampa Pizza and BBQ, Big Papa's Pit and more will be on hand at Bluz and BBQ for your taste enjoyment. Breweries including Cigar City Brewing and Yuengling will also be on hand to wash down all that delicious barbecue.
Bluz and BBQ is free for anyone to attent, but if you want to go all out you can purchase Hog Heaven VIP tickets for $125 and get free drinks and barbecue, special seating, complimentary gift bag, and more. Go here to purchase VIP Hog Heaven tickets in advance.
The 2nd Annual Bluz and BBQ at Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park begins at 10 a.m. and goes until 10 p.m. If you want a dose of classic blues with some down home barbecue, Bluz and BBQ is the place to be.
