Troubadour Festival

4th Annual Troubadour Festival at Old Celina Park

Troubadour Festival, a Texas BBQ & Music Experience, returns to Old Celina Park in Celina for the fourth time on Saturday, October 19, 2024!

We want to invite y’all back (or for the first time!) to Troubadour Festival on Saturday, October 19, at Old Celina Park in Celina. We’re showcasing the best in Texas barbecue and country music in a beautiful setting for what’s shaping up to be a killer fourth party in Celina.

This year’s Troubadour Festival will feature 40 of the best, most renowned barbecue joints from all over Texas — plus three out-of-state special guests for 43 total restaurants — alongside eight artists on two stages for a full day of tasty smoked meats, killer country music, and good times with old and new friends alike.

This year’s Celina festival will be co-headlined by the incredible Shane Smith & The Saints and Treaty Oak Revival. They will be joined on the Optimum Stage by Jason Boland & The Stragglers, Tanner Usrey, and The Wilder Blue. The Damn Quails will headline the side stage, where they’ll follow Logan Ryan Band and The Broken Spokes.

This is our biggest and baddest lineup ever, y’all, so we’re expecting tickets to go real fast. Troubadour Festival now has FOUR ticket levels: Troubadour VIP, Troubadour BBQ + Music, the all-new Troubadour Music VIP, and Troubadour Music.

Here’s the rundown on what is included with each ticket:

Troubadour VIP (12:00 PM entry, $225):

VIP tickets include a special VIP entrance with hour-earlier entry (12:00 PM) into the BBQ sampling that includes samples (with shorter lines!) from 43 incredible BBQ joints in Texas that lasts until 3:30 PM. You’ll also receive a festival t-shirt, and access to an exclusive VIP section at Old Celina Park with a private bar where your first two beers are on us, flushable and air-conditioned bathrooms, and standing room-only access in front of the stage. Additional food will be available from local food trucks and any BBQ restaurants that choose to sell food after 3:30 PM. Some seating will be provided, but you may also bring a basic folding chair to sit in designated areas.

Troubadour BBQ + Music (1:00 PM entry, $125):

The best of both worlds! Troubadour BBQ + Music tickets include access to both the BBQ and concert aspects of the festival.
