Purchase your ticket to taste and cast your vote for your favorite tacos. A limited number of tasting tickets are available in advance for three different time slots (11 am, 12 noon, and 1 pm) so purchase yours today! Tasting ticket holders will receive a wristband at the event and will be the only individuals allowed to sample and vote. 

If you have dietary restrictions be aware that the taco teams are not required to meet those needs. We anticipate that some teams will have gluten free corn tortillas and vegetarian tacos but the amount of options is unknown until we get closer to the event.
