The second annual Taco & Margarita Festival, returning Labor Day Weekend to North Charleston’s Riverfront Park on Sept. 5, 2026 (11 a.m. to 5 p.m.), is set to close out the summer with some of the city’s best Latin American cuisine and mixology.
Local favorites such as Taco Boy, El Jefe, Matador, Mi Tierra Caliente and Papá Grande are just a few of the festival's F&B presenters, offering a wide variety of Latin American staples – tacos, arepas, empanadas, pupusas, etc. – and craft margaritas.

In addition to contests, giveaways and live entertainment all afternoon, attendees will enjoy non-stop beats from two of Charleston’s best DJs, DJ Escobaby and DJ Pepp.
