Ranch Night BBQ & Concert (Ranch Night) – the Dutton family’s farm-to-table country concert held in June – today announced its return for next year. The second installment of this unique farm-to-table country concert will again be held the first weekend in June.
The inaugural installment of Ranch Night was held deep within the farm on a sunny afternoon that transitioned into a beautiful starlit night. The stage sat along the lake, with the farm’s rolling hills providing perfect acoustics and a breathtaking backdrop. Local artists kicked off the music, breakout country artist Bryan Martin led off the national roster, and Sammy Kershaw lit up the stage with “Cadillac Style” as night fell. A spectacular fireworks display capped off a perfect summer evening.
Attendees dined on a variety of the Dutton family’s own premium Ohio wagyu beef, from brisket and burnt ends to burgers and all-beef hotdogs. The food prep, cooking and service was handled by the talented staff of their own farm-to-table restaurant, The Pike 40 in Morristown.
Ranch Night owner and creator Chris Dutton recalled the response to the 2024 show.
“The response to Ranch Night far exceeded our expectations,” Dutton candidly shared. “We had to keep adjusting our layout to increase capacity to meet the demand, especially within the premium area.”
Ranch Night BBQ & Concert 2025 will largely follow the same model as its 2024 predecessor with one major addition: camping.
“I took one of my favorite hidden pastures on the ranch and carved out an area for camping. It sits up in the trees, adjacent to the concert site and our on-ranch lodging area. It’s beautiful,” Dutton said.
Concertgoers are invited to camp at the farm beginning Thursday, June 5. In addition to a small kickoff party, the Duttons are also looking to offer campers the fishing and kayaking amenities currently included with their on-site lodging. Details surrounding camping pre-registration are available now at duttonranchnight.com.
The lineup for Ranch Night is expected to be announced this winter, however, creators can currently share that it will be 90s Legacy and Red Dirt Country.
General admission and limited premium tickets will be available for purchase early next year. For more information or to pre-register for camping, visit duttonranchnight.com or email ranchnight@duttoncattle.com.
