Mark your calendars. The Tacos & Tequila Festival – one of the most anticipated throwback celebrations in the country – is officially returning to the Chicago area for its third consecutive year. Set for Saturday, September 26, 2026, it promises one massive, sun-soaked day of nostalgia, flavor, and the biggest names in 2000s hip-hop and R&B.
This year’s lineup delivers the ultimate throwback day party with performances from Rick Ross, Ginuwine, Xzibit, Chamillionaire, MIMS, and more to be announced. Festival favorite DJ Ashton Martin keeps the energy locked in between sets with the hits that defined a generation.
From the Rick Ross classic “Hustlin’” and Ginuwine’s smooth “Pony,” this is the soundtrack of the 2000s — live, loud, and ready to take over Chicago.
