Austin Mac & Cheese Festival 2026

Pack your appetite and head to camp. On Sunday, November 15, 2026, the Austin Mac & Cheese Festival returns to Star Hill Ranch in Bee Cave, Texas for its 10th anniversary — bigger, cheesier, and more nostalgic than ever.

This year’s theme, Camp Mac & Cheese, brings the fall getaway spirit of a classic summer camp to Austin’s most indulgent food festival. Think campfire vibes, retro camp aesthetics, and outdoor adventure — paired with unlimited samples from 20+ of Austin’s best restaurants, food trucks, and chefs, all competing for two Championship Belts.
