Camp Bacon is a festival paradise for kids big and small.
Saturday, June 27th & Sunday, June 28th
Kick off your kids’ summer fun with a Piglet Pass to Camp Bacon! The Piglet Pass lets your little bacon lovers eat and sip (lemonade) alongside you at the Bacon & Bourbon Festival. Plus, each Piglet Pass includes a 2026 piglet commemorative item to take home. This year, kids can get creative with a fun, hands-on craft from The Frosted Flamingo mobile art studio—a DIY experience you won’t want to miss!
Activities Included with the Piglet Pass:
