Event Details

The Muir Beach Volunteer Fire Department is thrilled to announce details for the 51st Annual Muir Beach Volunteer Firefighters’ Barbecue on Sunday afternoon of Memorial Day Weekend, May 25, in Santos Meadow near Muir Beach and Muir Woods. Featuring delicious food, fantastic live music, tasty craft beers, premium wine, and a whole lot of fun for the family, the Muir Beach Volunteer Firefighters’ Barbecue is a festive gathering, a favorite Memorial Day Weekend tradition in Marin and an essential fundraiser for the Muir Beach Volunteer Fire Department. This year’s event is particularly special, as the MBVFD is set to build a brand-new firehouse near the Muir Beach Overlook. Proceeds from the Barbecue will directly support this critical project, ensuring the department is well-equipped to serve the community for years to come.

 

Live music will keep the energy high all day! Local favorites Lumanation will get the crowd dancing with upbeat reggae music, and then perennial favorites Andre’s All-Stars—featuring top-tier musicians—take the stage and bring classic rock and R&B.

 

No barbecue is complete without incredible food, and the MBVFD has it covered. Muir Beach firefighters and community members will tend to smoky grills. Barbecue chicken, crepes, vegetarian tamale lunches, handmade desserts, sodas, beer, and wine will be available, as will clothing and other items featuring the famous Muir Beach Volunteer Fire Department’s iconic dog logo. The day concludes with an exciting raffle featuring dozens of wonderful prizes, including accommodations, restaurant gift certificates, and experiences from across the Bay Area and beyond!

 

Parking is $30 per vehicle, and carpooling is encouraged. Walk-in and bike-in attendees can enter for $10. For more details, visit muirbeachfire.com
