Entertainment
Of course, it wouldn’t be a food festival without live music and performances. As you might expect, all music is western-themed. Country music and country dancing prevail when BBQ and sweet corn are on the menu. Kids have their own area where special magic shows, juggling shows, and summer camp games will keep them entertained the whole day.
