About Us
Swine 'N Dine started in 2011 with a friendly BBQ competition in a backyard in Paxton, Illinois. Over the years it has expanded into a downtown street festival!
The event features live music, kids’ activities, vendors, a bags tournament, a cruise-in, and of course – Great BBQ!

Sponsors
This is a free community event, designed to improve the exposure of Paxton’s historic downtown area and to highlight Paxton’s genuine hometown qualities, businesses, and local attractions. Through such a large community event, several out-of-town guests and residents of surrounding areas have been able to explore Paxton’s downtown area and create new bonds of friendship and trust within our business district.
​
We are able to keep this a free event due to our very generous sponsors. Our sponsors not only receive recognition in various ways throughout the event, but there are also many perks to becoming a sponsor such as artists' meet and greets, free party pit tickets, and of course..some great BBQ.
