A live fire feast at Franklin Barbecue on Friday, 10/16. Inspired by backyard gatherings, Giddy Up puts chefs front and center. Sample unique bites and sips for an event that sets the tone for the best tasting weekend of the year.
It’s not Hot Luck without music, and in 2026 we’re bringing Mon Rovia to Mohawk. Your Whole Enchilada pass gets you into this live concert in addition to Giddy Up and House Party, plus additional music throughout the weekend. Stay tuned for more announcements coming soon.
Located at Assembly Hall on Saturday, 10/17, this is the largest culinary event of the weekend. Dozens of dishes, one lively indoor-outdoor party: chefs from across the country serving their most creative plates while the drinks stay cold and the music stays loud.
On Friday, Oct. 16, Mon Rovîa will take over Mohawk for the first night of Hot Luck weekend. Doors open at 8 p.m., and the show starts at 9 p.m.
