The North Carolina Ground Steak Festival is held annually on the second Saturday in June and hosted by the Dobson Tourism Development Authority. The next festival takes place Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on the historic courthouse square in downtown Dobson.
The festival honors ground steak, a loose-meat, melt-in-your mouth cousin to the hamburger born in the diners and burger joints of Surry County during the Great Depression.
Central Café, Flat Rock Ruritan Club, and Fat Catz BBQ will dish out ground steak sandwiches as our Official Ground Steak Vendors!
The day includes more than 75 artisans and crafters, bluegrass and old-time string music, and children’s games and activities
