Are you ready for Tacos & Tequila, the Fiesta of the Summer?! 

Please take a minute to read our KBYG and forward it to any of your friends that haven’t purchased their tickets yet. We have continued to keep attendance lower than pre-pandemic years to allow for social distancing while at the event. This also means we are much more likely to sell out of tickets, so additional tickets should be purchased sooner rather than later. 

Get tickets here. 

Cheers, 

Orlando Weekly & The Tacos & Tequila Team
