Annual Troy Pig Out

About this event

One of the most loved events in the Capital Region, the Troy Pig Out is BACK with a full day of fun. Culinary competitors duke it out for the best BBQ, and people flock to Downtown Troy to taste some of the area’s best food. 

This year's event takes place throughout Downtown Troy! Walk to your favorite participating locations to purchase $4 or $5 samples of BBQ options. Non-Downtown Troy restaurants can be found throughout the Downtown area, from Monument Square to Broadway.

Don't miss musical performances by Vintri Hill, Kristian Montgomery & the Winterkill Band, and Pogo.Duo! 

Join us for a hot dog eating contest sponsored by Famous Lunch on Broadway and 5th (next to Nighthawks).
