Toss, Laugh & Give Back:

Bradenton & Palmetto cornhole tournament | November 21, 2026 | The Yard at the Palmetto Marriott

Get your team together, grab your bags, and get ready to have some fun!

The annual Boards, Bites & Brews Cornhole Tournament is returning on Saturday, November 21, 2026, at The Yard at the Palmetto Marriott in Palmetto.

And this isn’t just another day of cornhole.

It’s a chance to play, compete, spend time with friends, and support De Soto’s fundraising efforts—all at the same time.

With two divisions to choose from, there’s a place for teams looking for serious cornhole tournament competition and teams that simply want to enjoy a great day together.

 Bring Your Team. Pick Your Division. Get Ready to Play.

Boards, Bites & Brews offers two divisions, giving teams the opportunity to choose the experience that’s right for them.

 Skilled Division — $60 Per Team

Ready to bring your A-game?

The Skilled Division is designed for the more serious cornhole players.

Sanctioned organizations can bring their own boards and bags and compete for a cash prize based on the total number of participants.

If you and your teammate have been waiting for your chance to put your skills to the test, this is your division.

 Fun Division — $50 Per Team

Maybe your goal isn’t to spend weeks practicing your toss.

Maybe you just want to grab a friend, show up, have some fun, and enjoy the day.

That’s exactly what the Fun Division is all about.

Teams of two can register for $50, and players will use De Soto boards and equipment.

Come ready to laugh, compete, cheer on your friends, and enjoy the experience.

The 2026 event is the seventh annual Boards, Bites & Brews Cornhole Tournament, continuing a tradition that brings people together for fun and friendly competition.

A Fun Day With a Bigger Purpose

What makes Boards, Bites & Brews especially meaningful is that your team isn’t just playing for bragging rights.

You’re helping support De Soto’s fundraising efforts.

The Hernando de Soto Historical Society is a volunteer, not-for-profit organization that has been part of the community since 1939. Through fundraising events and sponsorships, De Soto supports educational opportunities and gives back to local charities, organizations, and individuals. The organization reports donating more than $50,000 annually through its fundraising efforts.

So when you register your team, you’re doing something pretty simple:

You’re having fun—and helping make a difference.

That’s a pretty good reason to throw some bags.

This is the perfect event to put on the calendar with your favorite people.

Then come out to The Yard at the Palmetto Marriott and make a day of it.

You don’t have to choose between having fun and giving back.

With Boards, Bites & Brews, you get to do both.
