Get ready, Texas — the ultimate food, music, and flavor festival is coming to the coast. The Texas Food Championship is a three-day celebration of everything we love about
the Lone Star State: the food, the people, the music, and the pride that brings it all
together.
Hosted along the sparkling shores of Corpus Christi, this is where pitmasters, chefs, and rising
culinary stars battle it out across 10 epic competitions for a chance to earn their Golden Ticket
to the World Food Championships — and you’re invited to taste every moment of it. Taste. Cheer. Experience Texas Like Never Before.
Volunteers are invited behind the scenes starting Monday, September 21, 2026. Join us for 1, 2, or even 3 shifts for an incredible and unique experience. Volunteer perks include: A Weekend Pass, Meal ticket, & T-shirt
