BBQ at Burritt Family Dinner 2026

Summer evenings on Burritt Mountain take on a special glow during the annual BBQ Family Dinner, where delicious food meets sweeping views of Huntsville below. This outdoor gathering invites families to enjoy authentic barbecue served buffet-style under the pavilion while live music fills the mountain air. Petty Cash will provide the soundtrack for the evening, playing beloved hits from Tom Petty, Johnny Cash, and the Traveling Wilburys — the perfect complement to good food and good company. The event runs from 5:30pm to 7:30pm on June 18th at Burritt on the Mountain. Tickets cost $20 for adults and $8 for children, while little ones under three eat free. All seating is open and every table offers those signature panoramic views that make Burritt such a treasured Huntsville destination. Tickets go on sale May 1st at 8am, and this popular event tends to fill quickly as families mark their calendars for this seasonal tradition. Plan to arrive early to claim your preferred spot and soak in the mountain atmosphere before dinner begins. The relaxed, picnic-style setup makes this ideal for families with children of all ages — toddlers can stretch their legs on the grounds while older kids enjoy the music and views. Bring a light jacket for little ones as mountain breezes can pick up once the sun starts to set.
