COVID-19 Update: Townsquare Media, the owner of the Red Dirt BBQ & Music Festival, has been working diligently to ensure the safety of all festival-goers. We have been working with the local authorities to ensure that all guidelines are being followed and implemented. We have redesigned the layout this year to allow for proper social distancing and are staying well below the attendance capacity as set forth by the Tyler Fire Marshal’s office for the space. Additionally, we have increased the number of handwashing stations on-site, will place hand sanitizer throughout the venue, will have free masks available at the front gate and all attendees’ temperature will be taken with touchless scanners as they enter. It is our goal to make this the best festival yet, with public safety being our number one priority.
