The 2017 Lakeland Pigfest to be held at the SUN ‘n FUN Convention Campus
Lakeland, Fl. – The Lakeland Pigfest has announced to assist the City of Lakeland and the Detroit Tigers in their efforts and to ensure that no conflict occurs with the major renovations of the Publix Field at Joker Marchant Stadium, the Lakeland Pigfest will be relocating the 2017 event. The event scheduled for January 27th and 28th will be at The SUN ‘n FUN Convention Campus in Lakeland. The Lakeland Pigfest is one of the largest Barbecue Competitions in the South East and the Largest KCBS sanctioned event in Florida. Since 1997, the Lakeland Pigfest has generated over 2 million dollars in charitable donations that have been disbursed to the Lakeland Community through various community partnerships.

We are all hard at work to ensure this year’s event continues the tradition as the Largest and Best KCBS barbecue contest in Florida.” — Bill Tinsley
