WELCOME TO FOOD SPORT

WHAT IS TFC?

TEXAS' PREMIER FOOD SPORT CHAMPIONSHIP

Three days of championship cooking, incredible food, live entertainment and Texas-sized experiences on the Corpus Christi Bayfront.

MORE THAN A FOOD FESTIVAL

THIS IS TEXAS FOOD SPORT

The Texas Food Championship is where Texas' culinary talent comes to compete—and where fans come to experience it all. Across three action-packed days, chefs, pitmasters, home cooks and rising culinary talent step into the arena to battle live for Texas Championship titles, Golden Tickets and the opportunity to advance to the World Food Championships as part of Team Texas.

But TFC is much more than the competition. Throughout the weekend, guests can experience incredible food and drinks, food trucks, BBQ and Live Fire, live music and entertainment, family activities, shopping, interactive fan experiences, premium hospitality and special culinary experiences—all along the Corpus Christi Bayfront.

3 DAYS  |  12 CHAMPIONSHIP  |  90-MINUTE BATTLES  |  LIVE MUSIC  |  FOOD & DRINK  |  FAMILY FUN
