L.A. TACO’s Taco Madness 2023

L.A.’s premier taco-tasting event, held just steps away from the very site where our city was established, is the culmination of a month-long online bracket-style voting competition (Voting is currently underway here ). Ten of L.A.’s most celebrated taco chefs will unite for TACO MADNESS presented by Bud Light Chelada on May 6, each making their own signature tacos for the thousands of guests, VIPS, and L.A. TACO Members at LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes where the winner of this year’s competition will be announced. ALL VIPS GET INTO THE EVENT AT 4PM!!

In addition to a sample of L.A.’s best taqueros, expect to find a celebration of L.A. through dozens of vendors, tastings, live artwork, tattoo booths, celebrity judges, and musical performances. Currently, in its 14th year, TACO MADNESS is known as one of L.A.’s best culinary and cultural festivals, a day full of great music, food, drinks, and fun vibes.

This event is 21 and over.
