From the first note to the last dance, Tacos y Tamales Festival brings a full weekend of Latin-inspired music to the streets of Pilsen.

Across multiple stages, you’ll hear everything from classic mariachi and norteño to Latin pop, cumbia, and high-energy rock en español. These aren’t just sets—they’re celebrations of culture and the vibrant pulse of the neighborhood.

As day turns to night, our DJ stage kicks things up a notch—curated by local and regional talent that knows how to move a crowd.

And don’t be surprised if you stumble across a pop-up performance mid-bite. Dancers and street performers are woven throughout the grounds, turning the festival into a full-sensory celebration of Latin culture.

Whether you’re here to dance, vibe, or just take it all in—this is the sound of summer in Chicago.
