Major Changes to Yakima Taco Fest for 2025

First of all, the event is going family-friendly this year! This means, if you've not been able to attend Taco Fest because you couldn't get a sitter, there's one stressful thing to cross off your list. Bring the kids with you!

The other major change to Taco Fest this year is the location. It will be held at the Yakima Rotary Pavilion, right in the heart of downtown Yakima. You could take the city bus so you don't have to worry about driving (or get a taxi or Uber).

If you want to be a vendor at this event, you can register with Fuzion Events.They are still accepting vendors for tacos, mercados, and non-taco vendors.
