If there is anything Austin likes, it’s festivals. Well, and maybe standing in line for food. Luckily for us, both of these things will converge on May 18-21 as Aaron Franklin, Fun Fun Fun Fest co-founder James Moody, and Feast co-founder Mike Thelin bring Hot Luck to Austin.

Austin 360 broke the news this morning that a date had been set for the interactive festival first teased in June of last year. The lineup is still to be announced, but the event will feature around 35 chefs at casual events spread across multiple venues and will offer à la carte and all-in ticketing. Live music will be a key component, and while barbecue will be involved, it will not be the sole focus.
