What Is the Tacos and Tequila Festival?

So, you might be asking yourself: what actually is the Tacos and Tequila Festival? Well, it's a lively event that brings together food lovers and tequila enthusiasts for a day (or weekend) of indulgence. Think of it like a street fair, but with gourmet tacos and premium tequila tastings instead of rides and cotton candy.

It’s not just about eating tacos and sipping tequila—though you’ll definitely get to do plenty of both. There’s also live entertainment, cooking demos, mixology classes, and even contests to see who can make the best taco or cocktail. The whole vibe is festive, friendly, and full of flavor.

When and Where Is the Festival?

The main event, Viva La Vida, is set to take over summer 2025, with festivals popping up across North America. The first big one is in Minnesota, marking the debut of the Minnesota Taco and Tequila Festival. Other dates and locations will be announced soon, so keep an eye out for updates.
