Meatstock Toowoomba
Toowoomba Showgrounds
Barbecue, Bands and Bedlam!
Meatstock Toowoomba brings a stacked country and rock lineup together with the nation's biggest barbecue showdown for one huge weekend on the Darling Downs.
US headliners Gavin Adcock and Nate Smith top a bill that includes Lee Kernaghan, Wade Forster, Casey Barnes, Bella Mackenzie, Imogen Clark, Sarah Grace Buckley, Dear Tommie, Jimbo Stokes, Piper Butcher, Cholson and The Lyrical, playing across the festival alongside the fire and smoke.
Between sets, the action moves to the Australian Butcher Wars, where champion butchers from across the nation go head-to-head, and the Australian Barbecue Wars, where pitmasters compete for cash, prizes and bragging rights.
Professional bull riders add another layer of spectacle, while Jack Daniel's Fire Kitchen brings world-class international pitmasters into the flames, and King of the Grill and the crowd-favourite Beard and Mo Wars keep the competition running all weekend.
A dedicated barbecue expo covers everything needed for the barbecue journey, and an incredible line-up of low and slow barbecue food trucks keeps everyone fed between sets and cook-offs.
On-site camping and glamping make it easy to stay for the whole event rather than just a day.
Whether the drawcard is live music, world-class butchery, bull riding or simply eating very well in good company, Meatstock Toowoomba is one of Queenslands most unmissable weekends.
