Welcome to the 2nd Annual Schmeckenfest Showdown Basketball Tournament taking place in La Grange, Texas.  This year's event will feature 6 divisions and a total of 93 games across three action-packed days of competition.


The tournament coincides with one of La Grange's favorite traditions - Schmeckenfest, Our annual Christmas celebration is held on Thursday, December 4.  We will conclude Thursday's games early to allow teams, coaches, and fans to head downtown to enjoy the festivities.

Schmeckenfest is a community highlight featuring a Christmas parade, the lighting of the county tree, live music, local food, games, and plenty of holiday cheer.  A crowd favorite is the Wassail Tasting Contest, where local businesses compete to serve the best version of this warm, spiced holiday drink.  Free to attend and full of small-town spirit, Schmeckenfest is a memorable experience - and a perfect way for players and families to kick off the holiday season together.


Admission & Tickets:  
Admission is $10 per day or $20 for a full tournament pass (fees not included).  All tickets will be sold online.
