**THE COOKOUT****Houston, it’s time to bring the tradition back.**
The Cookout is more than an event—it’s a celebration of culture, community, and everything that makes our city feel like home. Inspired by the backyard cookouts we all grew up on, we’re transforming Emancipation Park into Houston’s biggest family reunion with great music, incredible food, cold drinks, games, and unforgettable energy.
Expect an all-day soundtrack curated by some of Texas’ top DJs, spinning everything from R&B, Hip-Hop, Afrobeats, House, Jersey Club, and Southern classics. Whether you’re dancing with friends, relaxing on the lawn, grabbing BBQ, or discovering local vendors, every corner of The Cookout is designed to bring people together.
**The Cookout is a free community experience.** RSVP is encouraged, but capacity is limited. Free admission is available while space lasts. Paid ticket holders receive **guaranteed entry**, expedited check-in, and access to exclusive ticket perks.
**What to Expect**
* Live DJs playing the best in R&B, Hip-Hop, Afrobeats, House, Jersey Club, and more
* Authentic BBQ and some of Houston’s favorite food vendors
* Full bars with cocktails, beer, and specialty drinks (21+)
* Interactive brand activations and local vendors
* Photo opportunities and lawn games
* A safe, welcoming environment centered around community, culture, and connection
Grab your friends, bring your lawn chair or blanket, and get ready for an afternoon celebrating Black culture, great music, and unforgettable vibes.
