On Oct. 15, the Dallas Observer will take over City Hall Plaza with live music, ample booze and dozens of vendors sampling all the tacos you can stuff in your taco-hole.
The second annual Tacolandia is an outdoor taco-sampling festival full of Dallas’ best tacos, ranging from contemporary to classic street-style, along with cash bars with beer and cocktails and awards for best tacos in various categories. If you want to snag $25 tickets early, pre-sale starts at 10 a.m. today and runs through 9 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 13. Just head to Tacolandia's website and use the code DOTACOS to buy pre-sale tickets.

VIP ticket holders will get early entry into the event (at 3 p.m.), unlimited taco samples, access to a VIP lounge with its own VIP bar with complimentary beer and cocktail samples and access to VIP restrooms.
