Jam and Feast at R&B Fest (Ribs & Beer) in Fayetteville NC on May 29, 2023

The inaugural R&B Fest (Ribs and Beer) is set to take place at the picturesque Sweet Valley Ranch, offering a full day of entertainment, food, and fun for people of all ages. The festival will feature a rib cook-off competition, craft vendors, food trucks, and live entertainment from local artists.

Admission to the event is free, but a $10 donation is required to enjoy a plate of delicious BBQ ribs or chicken with all the fixings. This is a great opportunity for foodies to sample some of the best BBQ in the region and support a worthy cause.

The organizers of the festival aim to honor fallen military heroes and raise funds for local charities, including the Marius Maximus Foundation. By attending the festival, you can enjoy a great day out while also supporting a good cause.

The event promises to be a perfect family day out, with plenty of activities for kids, such as visiting and learning about some of Sweet Valley Ranch’s furry and feathered friends. You can also meet some of the festival’s amazing partners, including Flip Flop Sauce, Fizzy Friendz Bath Bomb, and Southern Pines Brewery Company.

If you’re interested in competing in the rib cook-off competition, the entry fee is $25. Vendor and food truck entry fees are $30 and $100, respectively. Applications, rules, and sponsorship packages are available on the festival’s website, www.rnbfest.net.
