HOOSIER BBQ CLASSIC MUSIC & FOOD TRUCK FESTIVALS

We are proud to announce that the 5th Annual Hoosier BBQ Classis will again be held at the Johnson County Fairgrounds in Franklin, IN, on June 6th and June 7th, 2025.

We are working hard to make the Hoosier BBQ classic a “must do” on everyone’s BBQ calendar and raise much-needed funds for Folds of Honor to continue helping those who serve and have served this great nation.

This year the Hoosier BBQ Classic in cooperation with Fold of Honor will be hosting a food trucks festival, family fun zone, beer garden, and live music featuring Tyler Poe and the Volunteer Railroad.

A special hand picked number of food trucks will begin serving at 12 noon on Saturday, June 8 th and will remain open through 6pm. Tyler Poe and the Volunteer Railroad Band go on stage at 3 PM. Bring your friends and family out for dinner and a show! Bring your lawn chairs and join us at Johnson County Fairgrounds.
