All food-related items will work on a voucher system with stations located throughout the festival grounds. Purchase your taco vouchers ($4 a voucher sold in sheets of 5 for $20) at any of the stations and then simply exchange them for Tacos, Elotes, Nacho’s, and all food-related menu items! All vendors will offer at least two items on their menu for one voucher ($4) with a very select few offering some high-end fancy pants tacos (Crab, Lobster etc) and burritos for two vouchers ($8).

Yes, this is a Rain or Shine indoor/outdoor event. Please plan accordingly and bring rain gear if it is going to rain - it does happen and we still get a sell-out crowd in the rain!
