‼️ The American Royal World Series of Barbecue will look a little different this year. As we welcome the World Series of Barbecue to our new American Royal campus in Kansas City, KS the 2026 event will be focused on creating a great experience for competing teams and people attending as a guest of a team or corporate host. This year due to space limitations as we continue ongoing construction at the new campus, there will be no main stage or public entertainment available outside of those parties hosted by event participants. If you are a guest of a team or party that already has a space reserved for the 2026 competition, we can’t wait for you to be a part of this year’s event. We appreciate your understanding as we make this exciting transition to our new home. We look forward to welcoming the entire Kansas City community to the American Royal campus and sharing the World Series of Barbecue with the public again in the future! 🥩 #AmericanRoyal #WorldSeriesOfBarbecue #WhereChampio...
