Vegas squad, fire up the group chat and get your appetite ready, because the ultimate throwback party is officially heading to the desert. The wildly popular Tacos & Tequila Festival is making its highly anticipated Las Vegas debut on Saturday, October 10, 2026, taking over the Las Vegas Ballpark for a full day of music, food, and absolute nostalgia.
If you’ve been craving a carefree day packed with early-2000s hip-hop, incredible street eats, and crisp margaritas, this is exactly where you need to be.
A Perfectly 2000s-Era Line-Up
The festival is bringing a stellar lineup of hip-hop and R&B icons to the stage, guaranteed to give you the soundtrack of an entire era.
Atlanta rap legend T.I. is headlining the show, bringing timeless anthems like “What You Know” and “Bring Em Out” alongside his massive 2026 breakout hit, “Let Em Know.” Joining him is the Bronx’s very own Fat Joe, plus live performances from a stacked roster of early aughts icons:
- Pretty Ricky
- Trina
- Chingy
- Petey Pablo
- Ying Yang Twins
- Bubba Sparxxx
- Murphy Lee
- Festival favorite DJ Ashton Martin
A Uniquely Delicious Experience
While the music alone is worth the ticket, this festival goes way beyond the stage. Produced by Social House Entertainment, this 21+ party is a fully loaded experience.
When you aren’t rockin’ them hips and singing loudly to every lyric, you can check out:
- Eats and Drinks: Dozens of Las Vegas’ best taco vendors, street eats, craft margaritas, and curated tequila tastings.
- Entertainment: High-flying Lucha Libre wrestling matches and an absolutely adorable Chihuahua beauty pageant.
- Energy: Good vibes with spellbinding art installations and Instagrammable photo ops scattered all across the festival grounds.
“This is the biggest throwback party of the year — the soundtrack of the 2000s, brought to life by the artists who made the hits,” says the festival team. “We’re pairing iconic hip-hop with the best tacos, margaritas, and interactive entertainment Las Vegas has to offer.”
