Highwood Days with Taco Fest
Taco Fest will offer delicacies from over 20 taco-centric restaurants, caterers and food trucks along with a booze tent featuring Cutwater Spirits, margaritas, palomas and mules, Mexican beer and more!
Taco Fest vendors will be sharing their unique take on the ever-popular taco while competing for the ‘People’s Choice Award’ in the categories of Best Authentic and Best Unique Tacos.
Attendees can choose from a variety of tacos from traditional carne asada to the more unique braised short rib and brussel sprout taco or healthy mahi mahi taco, and cast their vote at the Highland Park Bank & Trust/Highwood-Fort Sheridan Bank ballot booth. The winner in each category will receive a trophy and bragging rights. The winners will be announced at the stage on Sunday, July 23 at 6 PM.
Combined with the 56th Annual Highwood Days, the City’s most celebrated festival in its history, the 4-day festival will be complete with carnival rides and games! Come on out, eat tacos, enjoy a cocktail, listen to some great music and don’t forget to cast your vote!
