The Grant BBQ Festival will take place April 17-19 at 4580 1st Street in Grant, Florida, offering food, live music, and activities while raising money for Space Coast youth. Proceeds from the event will benefit Toys for Kids, Brevard, a nonprofit that provides toys and resources to children in the county. The festival is organized by Timmy Vee, a Brevard County DJ and radio host who said the event might be the only BBQ festival in the area. "We might just be the only BBQ Festival in town – if not, we should be!" Vee said. The three-day event includes a Backyard BBQ Contest, the Kool Karz Classic Car and Motorcycle Show, an Arts and Crafts Marketplace, and live music performances. The festival is held in Grant, a rural town in southern Brevard County known for its mix of older and newer homes and the county-owned Habitat Golf Course. Tickets are available for purchase, and the event aims to bring the community together while supporting local youth programs. Vee emphasized the festival's focus on fun and charity, with activities designed to appeal to families and car enthusiasts alike. The event is part of a growing trend of community-driven fundraisers in Brevard County, which has seen similar efforts tied to education, healthcare, and emergency services.
