ABOUT TACOFEST

What is Tacofest

Waterloo Region Tacofest promises three things: tacos, craft beer, and good times. Proceeds from the award-winning event will support Community Support Connections, a local charity that works with hundreds of local volunteers to help over 6,600 people live happily and healthy in the comfort of their own homes.

Not only that, but Tacofest is a celebration of our region’s phenomenal local restaurant and brewery scene. Featuring local restaurants and their finest tacos, local craft breweries serving their best brews, music, face painting, and more. Every-year, trophies are awarded by our expert panel of judges, and you – the attendees. Tacofest promises to rock Waterloo Region for the 10th year once again.

what is community support connections

All proceeds from Tacofest go directly to Community Support Connections. Community Support Connections is a non-profit organization that promotes the health of the whole person – mind and body – through support services. Serving over 6,600 seniors and people with disabilities in Waterloo Region, their aim is to enable people to live at home with independence and dignity. Community Support Connections is creating a community where everyone feels at home – valued, connected, and empowered.
