Each year, over 25 of your favorite local restaurants and mixologists compete head-to-head in the ultimate taco and margarita competition. You sample. You vote. You decide who takes home the crown.
From unforgettable bites and bold drinks to original artwork and live music, TacoMania brings it all—right to the heart of Dewey Beach.

- Live music by Hot Sauce Band, DJ JY on the mic, and high-energy vibes
- Taco and margarita tastings from 25+ local restaurants and bars
- The Skull Show: a silent auction of 30 original ceramic skulls.
- A stunning sunset over the bay at the iconic Rusty Rudder (free parking in Dewey Beach)
Your vote is helping crown this year’s TacoMania champions!!
