Counting down to 'Cuegrass 2026!!! Hang with us from noon to 6PM as we shut down Fayetteville Street for one of our favorite traditions. ‘Cuegrass is a celebration of two of North Carolina’s greatest cultural treasures: barbecue and bluegrass. Expect live music, local brews, and plenty of that signature ‘cue from The Pit. What makes it even better? 100% of proceeds from food and drink sales, Fast Passes, Pit merch, and our Silent Auction go directly to our annual nonprofit partners. Since day one, 'Cuegrass has raised over $250,000 for causes like the Food Bank of Central & Eastern NC, Feed the Farm, W.C. Breeze Family Farm, Animal Welfare Approved, NC 4-H, BackPack Buddies, and SAFEchild. Come hungry—because good times, good food, and good music can do a whole lot of good!!!
