Luck Presents has spent the last 48 hours assessing incoming weather patterns to the Spicewood, TX area. Under the advisement of Travis County officials and the National Weather Service the decision has been made to postpone Luck Reunion to Friday, March 17th. The safety of fans, performers, vendors and staff remains paramount… without that there is no Luck.

All existing tickets, parking passes and press credentials will be honored for the rescheduled Luck Reunion date Friday, March 17th. Any minor changes to lineup will be announced as soon as possible.

Same venue, same vendors, same Willie… and a little more sunshine. Hope to see you out at Luck on Friday.

Potluck 2023: Three Sisters (3/15), Luck Origins: New Orleans Takeover (3/18), and “Strange Things Happening: A Tribute to Sister Rosetta Tharpe” (3/19) will go on as scheduled.

A”Three Sisters”-themed evening celebrating native cuisine with a with a family-style seated dinner prepared by a diverse slate of esteemed chefs, followed by a performance by Willie Nelson under the hill country stars.

Every so often, an opportunity comes into your life that you might not even have thought to ask for. Take, for example, dinner with Willie Nelson — on his farm, while getting a culinary cultural and historical lesson on Indigenous American cuisine.

Just ahead of the Luck Reunion Festival, a food and music festival held in “Willie’s Backyard” in Spicewood, Texas, he and his family will be welcoming an intimate group of guests to join them for a special themed dinner. The 2023 Potluck — which boasts a “three sisters” theme — will feature a menu built around maize, squash, and climbing beans, the three crops universally accepted as the most important crops in Indigenous cuisine.

The family-style feast is set to take place on Wednesday, March 15, and will be prepared by three Indigenous rising stars of the culinary world: Brit Reed and Sewa Yuli (representing I-Collective, an organization of Indigenous chefs, activists, herbalists, and seed and knowledge keepers) and Crystal Wahpepah, former Chopped contestant and owner of Wahpepah’s Kitchen in Oakland, California.

Experiencing this intimate dinner isn’t exactly impossible, but it’s obviously not the most accessible, either. If you’d like to attend the dinner alone, you’ll have to set about $500 aside and hope the waiting list opens up. If you can get a crew together, however, you and three friends can reserve a half-table for $4000, or a full table — which accommodates eight — for $7500.
