Held annually in Burleigh Heads, the Burleigh BBQ Championships offers a full weekend of top-notch barbecue food, live entertainment and good vibes on Burleigh Beach – an event that’s not to be missed if you’ve got a taste for the traditional Aussie barbecue.

Come along to see Australia’s top barbecue teams cook up their best barbecue dish, with more than 60 judges and a whole host of awards to be won. As the championships take place, there will be live entertainment on the beach, a spread of local barbecue food vendors and a superb atmosphere to enjoy.

Last year’s Burleigh BBQ Championships brought in over 7,000 people from all over the country, making it the most successful event yet. It’s back again due to high demand, and you can expect a whole lot more from this year’s championship, which will bring world-famous Burleigh Beach Gold Coast to life over two full days.
