Owensboro’s Burger Week will return March 5-14, bringing a 10-day celebration of creative burgers from local restaurants and food trucks across the community. Businesses interested in participating can submit an entry now.

Hosted by Visit Owensboro in partnership with the City of Owensboro, the annual event invites any Owensboro-area restaurant or food truck to participate by offering a featured burger priced at $8.

Restaurants and food trucks interested in participating must submit a burger name, description, and one photo of their featured burger to [email protected] by February 16.

“Based on the past, this event will bring over 40 restaurants and over 60,000 burgers sold and consumed,” said Daylin Tolgo of Visit Owensboro. “Burger Week is one of the most anticipated local events of the year, and we cannot wait to watch it continue to grow to be even bigger and better than the year before.”

Additional details, including participating locations and sponsors, will be announced closer to the event.

Burger Week highlights locally owned restaurants and encourages residents to explore new flavors while supporting area businesses. The event is free to participate in for the public, with no tickets or passes required.
