Craig Morgan coming to Paxton

The Paxton Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce the entertainment for the 2024 Paxton Swine ‘N Dine BBQ Contest & Festival.

This year, Craig Morgan, a country music icon, TV personality, celebrated outdoorsman and patriotic Army veteran, is coming to the Paxton Swine ‘N Dine! As one of country music's best-loved artists, Morgan has charted 25 songs on Billboard and thrills massive crowds with signature hits including “Bonfire,” “Almost Home,” “Redneck Yacht Club,” “International Harvester,” “This Ole Boy,” “Soldier,” “Wake Up Loving You,” “That's What I Love About Sunday” and his faith-filled tribute to his son Jerry, “The Father, My Son and The Holy Ghost.”

Swine n’ Dine started 11 years ago with a friendly BBQ competition in a Paxton backyard. Over the years it has expanded into the downtown street festival for an entertaining day! The event features live music, kids’ activities, vendors, a bags tournament, a cruise-in, and of course – Great BBQ!

Entry forms and rules for the BBQ contest, as well as details on all the events, will be available online soon. The music will start at 5:00 PM. General Admission to the concert is FREE, but tickets for the party pit (the section closest to the stage) are on sale now.
