Following its debut in Houston this past year, Tacos & Tequila Festival returns to the Sam Houston Race Park on April 11 with another exciting day of throwback rap and R&B with performances by some of the biggest artists of the era on top of top-notch tacos, margaritas, and more.

- Xzibit
- Trina
- Ying Yang Twins

Furthermore, the festival is bringing a massive lineup of food and entertainment to the Houston area. True to its name, the event features a curated selection of chef-inspired street tacos, craft margaritas, and a dedicated tequila tasting lounge for enthusiasts.

Beyond the menu, the festival is known for its diverse attractions, including live Lucha Libre wrestling matches, a competitive salsa and queso tasting, and a showcase of exotic cars. One of the day’s most popular traditions is the signature Chihuahua beauty pageant, which remains a highlight of the event’s programming.
