Auchan becomes the main partner of the largest barbecue festival in Europe

June 20–22, National Arena, Bucharest – 250,000 sqm, €1 million worth of premium meat, tens of thousands of participants.
Auchan Romania and GRILLFEST BBQ are excited to announce a major partnership: one of the most innovative retailers in Romania, and a strong supporter of local producers, is now backing the biggest European festival dedicated to grilling and lifestyle. Together, they’re bringing the public an unforgettable culinary experience across 250,000 square meters — the equivalent of 35 football fields!

GRILLFEST BBQ powered by Auchan returns June 20–22 at the National Arena for its third edition, featuring an impressive line-up of live cooking, music, activations, and slow, flavorful fire-cooked recipes from around the world. The value of the premium meats and ingredients on offer exceeds €1,000,000.

A celebration of community, flavor, and barbecue tradition
From Texan brisket and Brazilian picanha to Japanese wagyu, Spanish chorizo, Korean bulgogi, and Romanian mititei — GRILLFEST BBQ is a global culinary journey. The festival showcases the world’s most iconic barbecue styles through live masterclasses led by both international and local chefs, as well as "battle-style" cooking sessions featuring bold matchups — bison vs. crocodile, ostrich vs. shark.

Music, vibes, and activations for all tastes
Beyond the food zone, the festival also features:

  • 3 stages of live music and DJ sets
  • dedicated areas for kids, sports, and artisanal desserts
  • creative brand activations and exclusive launches
  • barber shop, tattoo booths, cocktail bars, and themed lounges

Auchan will be at the heart of the festival with delicious activations, exclusive products, and surprises for the whole family.

GRILLFEST BBQ is about you — about family, friends, and the joy of gathering around the grill. It’s about culture, flavor, and a community united by the love of a good flame.
Early bird tickets available at www.grill-fest.ro and via the iabilet.ro ticketing network.
