Heritage Park will come alive with flavor, music, and family fun as the Tacos & Tequila Festival returns for a two-day celebration of food, entertainment and contests.

The festival takes place at 200 N. McKenzie St. in Foley and promises a weekend packed with Hispanic-inspired cuisine, live music, artisan vendors and activities for all ages.

Each food vendor will feature at least one Hispanic-inspired dish alongside festival favorites, offering everything from tacos and tamales to margaritas and tequila specialties. Guests can explore the artist and crafters market, enjoy the Family Fun Zone with bounce houses, a petting zoo, and pony rides and participate in lively cash contests throughout the weekend. Free bourbon, tequila, rum and rye sampling will be available all day Saturday.

“This event is all about bringing our community and families, and friends together to create forever memories,” said Lisa Yeater, president of Beach Life Events. “From the food, music, family fun zone, artist and crafters, the Tacos & Tequila Festival has something for everyone.”
