WHAT IS THE
BLUEGRASS BRAWL?
The Bluegrass Brawl is a one-of-a-kind Northern Kentucky festival built around country games, team competition, food, music, local vendors, family fun, and unforgettable backroad chaos.
Whether you’re showing up with a full team, bringing the kids, setting up a vendor booth, sponsoring the action, or just coming to watch the madness — there’s something happening all day.
THE MAIN BRAWL
18+ Team Competition
Main competition games are currently planned for ages 18+ only. Spectators of all ages may attend with parent or guardian supervision. Final age requirements will be confirmed with venue, insurance, and event approvals.
Outrunning the Revenuers
A mud-course chase where teams haul mock barrels and clear obstacles.
Barn Ridge Barn-Burner
Padded foam-stick balance battle over the mud. Fall off, lose the round.
Cooler Drag Derby
Two-person teams drag a loaded cooler through the mud lane to the finish.
Hay Bale Heave
Pure Kentucky strength. Throw the bale. Clear the bar. Own the crowd.
Tug of War
Old-school rope, fresh mud pit. Last team standing takes the bragging rights.
Ice Storm Scramble
A slick cart-push race through Kentucky winter chaos — helmets, pads, mayhem.
BACKROAD GAMES
Casual games. Big bragging rights.
Not every game requires a full team. Grab your friends, challenge somebody in the crowd, and play for bragging rights all day.
Cornhole Tournament
Open-entry bracket. Bring a partner, leave a champion.
Giant Jenga
Steady hands, steady nerves. One wrong pull and the crowd erupts.
Ladder Toss
Three rungs, two bolas, one shot at glory.
More Coming Soon
Backroad lineup keeps growing as we lock in sponsors and field space.
LITTLE BRAWLERS ZONE
Kids games, big smiles, lasting memories.
The Little Brawlers Zone gives younger competitors their own place to race, play, get loud, and make memories while the grownups handle the big Brawl.
Wheelbarrow Dash
Partner up and race the course on wheels and laughter.
Three-Legged Race
A classic with a Bluegrass twist. Cross the line together or fall trying.
One Bucket Brigade
Speed, splash, and teamwork. The wettest team wins.
Sack Race
Hop fast, hop hard, hold the cheer of the whole crowd.
COME FOR THE GAMES.
STAY FOR THE WHOLE DAY.
Smoke, sizzle, and small-batch local kitchens lined up all day.
Country, bluegrass, and homegrown sound from the main stage.
Makers, brands, and small businesses front and center.
Mascot setups, festival signage, and crowd-ready backdrops.
The Bluegrass Brawl is more than competition. It’s a full festival day built for teams, families, friends, businesses, and anybody looking for something different in Northern Kentucky.
