Nothing says summer like an outdoor barbecue festival jam-packed with finger-lickin' sauces, cool drinks and live music. So bring your appetite and come out to The Plateau - National Harbor to kick off the warm months at the Beer, Bourbon & BBQ Festival. You'll get a souvenir sampling glass, which you can use to sample 40 bourbons and 60 beers on tap. Groove to live rock, blues and bluegrass bands while you taste. Hit up the barbecue vendors to purchase pulled pork from whole hogs, ribs, brisket, chickens, sausages and all the fixins'. Then sit in on seminars from master distillers, brewers, and pit masters from the Deep South.
