Viva La Vida: Taco & Tequila Festival brings you the true taste of Latin America, with every taco, churro, and bite crafted by local Latino-owned food trucks and restaurants. From family recipes to regional classics with a modern twist, it’s all made with heart — and zero shortcuts.
While Latin cuisine takes center stage, you’ll also find a few local favorites serving up non-Latin eats done right.
Come hungry and celebrate culture through food.




Viva La Vida brings the party to life with two jam-packed days of nonstop entertainment. From live lucha libre wrestling to roving mariachis, dazzling cultural dancers, and crowd-favorite contests, there’s something happening in every corner of the festival.
Explore, cheer, shop, and play — it’s all part of the celebration.
