The 8th Annual Arizona Taco Festival is back for another round this October 14 & 15, featuring an unbelievable lineup of 50 of the Valley's best taco joints, 16 top mixologists shaking up their takes on the Valley's best margarita, special appearances by Extra TV Star Mario Lopez, and The Most Interesting Man in the World-Jonathan Goldsmith, and other participants sure to make this year's Arizona Taco Festival the biggest and best yet. The 8th Annual Arizona Taco Festival, presented by Astral Tequila and Jalisco, features a 50-restaurant lineup including a spicy mix of past Arizona Taco Festival Champions, new restaurants, food trucks, and classic Phoenix destinations. New for 2017, like at other major festivals like Coachella and Kaaboo the AZ Taco Festival now features RFID cashless ticketing wristband system, making it easy for guests to purchase all of their food and beverage throughout the weekend.

All participating taco vendors will vie for trophies and portions of a $10,000 cash prize purse in a heated culinary competition. Participating taco teams include new restaurants such as La Sala and Chico Malo, plus Taco Festival veterans including Diego Pops (past winner of Best Dessert Taco, Best Pork Taco and Best Seafood Taco) and CRUjiente Tacos, Gadzooks, Loco Patron, and SOL Cocina. And now legendary Phoenix restaurants T. Cook's, Tarbell's, and Litchfield's will also be showcasing their taco creations at Salt River Fields. For a full list of this year's Taco Teams visit
