Restaurants and Vendors in attendance are able to enter their salsa in our Salsa Dip Contest. Registration for the contest will take place prior to the event. Contest will take place at 1:00pm on the Klance 2nd Stage. The winner will be given a shout out on the Quirk Main Stage.

All taco vendors at the event are automatically entered into the Best Taco Spot Contest. We have anonymous judges who will be trying out all the spots, but guest feedback is very helpful so be sure to shoutout your favorite tacos on social media on the day of the event and make sure to tag @stltacofest.
