Battle of the Buffalo is an annual philanthropic chicken wing festival held at Big Spring Park in Downtown Huntsville, Alabama. On April 18, 2026, for the seventeenth round, local restaurants and amateur cooks will compete with their tastiest wings in an effort to be crowned best of the Tennessee Valley. Last round, with the help of our generous restaurants and sponsors, Battle of the Buffalo brought together more than 10,000 community members, served over 14,000 pounds of chicken wings, and presented the Russel Hill Cancer Foundation with $70,000 and The HudsonAlpha Foundation with $30,000. This year, Battle of the Buffalo Wing Festival will boast wing entries from local restaurants, various vendors from the community, a celebrity judging panel that includes key individuals across the Huntsville/Madison areas, an entire afternoon of live music, and a kid-friendly fun zone. The men of Alpha Tau Omega, along with the Russel Hill Cancer Foundation and HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology, invite you to join us in continuing a tradition of love, health, and charity.
