Taco Wars 2026 VIP Cabana: More Tacos, More Margaritas

If you haven’t experienced Taco Wars in Shreveport, you are missing out on the region’s most vibrant celebration of Hispanic culture.

This annual, free-to-attend festival has transformed into a culinary battleground, and it is officially returning to the historic Shreveport Municipal Auditorium on Saturday, May 2nd, 2026.

Taco Wars is widely regarded as one of the nation’s largest taco and salsa festivals.
