Food, fun, and fundraising; over the past eight years, Tito’s Fiesta Mexicana has raised over $140,000, including $28,000 raised in 2025 alone – with 100% of the event’s gross proceeds donated to the Culver City Arts Foundation each year. Tickets are on sale now for a fantastic day of music, margaritas, food, and community on October 4, 2026 from 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in Culver City.
First launched in 2018 as a celebration of National Vodka Day and National Taco Day, this beloved annual community event raises critical funds for the Culver City Arts Foundation to support a wide range of art, culture, and local artists. The proceeds support several programs throughout the year, including creative arts and performing arts grants, the Culver City Arts Projecting Possibilities Program, and the Culver Arts Book Festival.
At Tito’s Fiesta Mexicana, guests 21+ can sip Tito’s Handmade Vodka cocktails while savoring Tito’s Tacos’ award-winning tacos, burritos, and flan. This annual Culver City celebration brings five hours of live music and cultural entertainment to Tito’s Tacos, with comedian Eric Schwartz returning as master of ceremonies.
The lineup includes the legendary GRAMMY-nominated Mariachi Sol de México de José Hernández; GRAMMY-nominated Mariachi Reyna de Los Ángeles, the trailblazing all-female mariachi ensemble; Trio Chapala, a traditional Mexican musical trio; and Mariachi Juvenil Herencia Michoacana. Folklórico Revolución will bring the color and movement of ballet folklórico, while Artista de Lazo showcases traditional lariat artistry. Rounding out the entertainment is El Conjunto Nueva Ola, the spirited Mexico City cumbia group known for its colorful lucha-libre masks and signature recording, “Chido Chido.”
Miniature piñatas by Yesenia Prieto of The Piñata Design Studio will add a festive, handcrafted touch to the celebration.
