Each vote is $1 and you can vote at the event or vote online now at givegrove.com/bbqbrewfest2024/vote for your favorite grill team. We’ll also have the Fan Favorite award for best burger. With each ticket purchased you’ll receive 1 ticket to put in the bucket of the grill team you feel has the best burger creation.

The event will also feature musical performances by Blammo AND the winner of the BBQ & Brew Fest teen garage band contest, 50 Five. People who attend can taste burgers prepared by over 20 local grill teams representing businesses and organizations from around the county, cast votes for Biggest Club Advocate and put a ticket in the bucket of their favorite burger in the 2024 Fan Favorite Competition.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Elkhart County began operations in 1956, and today the Clubs provide programming and services for the most at-risk boys and girls within the community. Each day, the Clubs provide powerful relationships with the youth they serve and open avenues of opportunity for young people across their community by offering safe places where young people can learn, grow and succeed.
