Cookoff Questions
Everything you need for a smooth Country Style Cook Off visit, gathered in one place. Event-specific information will be updated when the next Cook Off is announced.
Travel and Lodging
Which airports are nearby?
For past Cook Off locations, guests considered Charlotte, Fayetteville, Myrtle Beach, Columbia, and Florence. The best airport and drive time depend on the confirmed event location. Check the current address before booking travel.
Where should I stay?
Hotel suggestions for the next event will be listed here after the venue is confirmed. Book directly with your chosen hotel and allow extra time for event traffic.
What about car and RV parking?
Parking arrangements can vary by venue and may be managed separately from Country Style. Current car, truck, and RV instructions will be posted here before tickets go on sale.
Before You Come
What time do gates open?
The gate time for the next event has not been announced. Check the current ticket and this page shortly before traveling.
What should I bring?
Plan for an outdoor day: a comfortable chair, weather protection, and your appetite. The final list of allowed items, including tents and coolers, will be published with the current event rules.
What does my ticket include?
Ticket inclusions can change each year. The current ticket listing will spell out food, activities, and any separate vendor purchases before checkout.
Can I bring my own grill or a pet?
Follow the current event’s guest rules. The prior site restricted personal grills and pets, but the next venue’s policy must be confirmed before we post a final answer.
What items are prohibited?
The approved prohibited-items list will be posted with current ticket terms and venue rules. Do not rely on a past year’s list.
Still Have a Question?
