The Wild West Sloppy Joe Fest is timed with World Cup excitement and will serve as one of the only major communitywide events in St. Joseph during this period. This gives sponsors a unique opportunity to reach both local residents and visitors as we showcase our downtown to an expanded audience. Deadline for full promotional exposure is May 21, 2026.

We’re on the lookout for trailblazin’ sponsors to help bring this shindig to life. Your support helps cover grub, gear, tunes, prizes, and all the fixin’s that make this festival a rip-roarin’ good time for families, food lovers, and folks who just want to support our downtown and like having a good hootin’ and hollerin’ time.

This ain’t just any ol’ cook-off, it’s a full-blown, boot-stompin’ showdown where local cooks, businesses, and community wranglers come together to rustle up the best dang Sloppy Joes this side of the prairie. Every dollar helps us round up the fun, from historic reenactors, live music and family activities to braggin’ rights for the best Sloppy Joe in the West.

So grab your hat, tip your boots, and join the Main Street Saint Joseph posse. With your help, we’ll make the Wild West Sloppy Joe Fest a legendary gathering folks’ll be talkin’ about long after the dust settles!

The event is centered around the Sloppy Joe cook-off and live entertainment, but the fun doesn’t stop there. Our entire downtown will be activated with participating businesses offering Wild West themed activities, specials, and experiences throughout the day. A complimentary hayride will also be available to help guests move between downtown activities.

When you're ready, mosey on up to the blue "Click Here To Sponsor" button to stake your claim in this here shinding. Your sponsorship helps supports Main Street Saint Joseph and the work we do to keep downtown vibrant.

All sales final. This event will be held as scheduled on the same day, rain or shine.
