Founded in 2024, Feels like Home Festival is an annual festival celebration of community, music, and delicious barbecue held in the heart of Brownwood, Texas. 

Each fall, local organizers behind this independently-produced event bring together friends, families, and fans of Texas country music for an unforgettable day of entertainment, authentic BBQ, and Southern hospitality.

Whether you’re a lifelong Texan or just looking for an epic weekend road trip, Feels Like Home lives up to its name – delivering a warm and welcoming experience rooted in tradition, community, and true Texas charm.

Bite into a fresh jalapeno bacon cheeseburger served in a restored train car, sample award-winning Texas-made wines and beers from local brewers and winemakers, experience legendary barbecue 90 years in the making, shop over a dozen locally-owned boutiques, spend a weekend on a lakefront golf course resort, attend a live performance at a beautifully preserved 1920s theatre, or snap some selfies on the mural trail. It’s all happening in Brownwood.

All of this and more is why Brownwood feels like home. A Central Texas destination in the midst of fast-moving and extremely successful revitalization efforts, the community of Brownwood has become energized by the blending of classic small-town Texas charm with vibrant new activity.
