🔥🍖 MEAT Noosa 2026 Is Coming… And We're Turning The Heat All The Way Up 🍖🔥

2026 isn't just another year. It's the year we step up, level up, and plant our flag properly in the Aussie BBQ scene.

Now officially home to the Queensland BBQ Championships. 🏆🔥

Bigger flames. Bigger flavour. Bigger energy.

More elite pitmasters. More live fire. More action across the entire site. We're expanding the footprint, tightening the operations, and dialling in every detail so the experience feels seamless from your first bite to your last beer.

And yeah… MEAT Noosa 2026 just got a serious upgrade.

For the first time ever, we're unveiling an exclusive VIP experience - and it's now officially known as the:

🔥 SCOTTSDALE PORK VIP LOUNGE 🔥

We've teamed up with Scottsdale Pork to bring you a VIP experience built for the people who refuse to settle for average.

If you want the best seat, the best food, the best drinks, and the smoothest festival experience possible... this is where you belong.

While everyone else is lining up, searching for a seat, and fighting the crowds, guests in the Scottsdale Pork VIP Lounge will be enjoying a completely different festival experience.

THE SCOTTSDALE PORK VIP LOUNGE INCLUDES:

🚪 Express Entry – Straight past the lines and into the action

🍖 Exclusive Barbecue Mafia VIP Platter For One – Loaded with slow-smoked brisket, pulled pork, pork belly burnt ends, slaw, pickles, chillies and BBQ pit beans

🥃 Private 18+ VIP Lounge – The Clubhouse

🍺 Private VIP Bar – Faster drinks, no chaos

🚻 Indoor Facilities – Real bathrooms. Real comfort.

🍺 OFFICIAL BEER PARTNER - HEADS OF NOOSA

We're also stoked to have Heads of Noosa Brewing Co. on board as the Official Beer Partner of MEAT Noosa 2026.

Because let's be honest... great BBQ deserves great beer.

Heads of Noosa will be bringing the cold beers, good times and Sunshine Coast brewing to the smokeout.

BBQ in one hand. Cold beer in the other. Sounds like a pretty bloody good Saturday to us.
