We are proud of our partnership with Comite Guelaquetza Madera, A Taste of Oaxaca!
In 2024, we launched on the Patio Stage, 'A Taste of Oaxaca,' a vibrant celebration of Oaxacan culture that promises a family-oriented, interactive experience suitable for all ages. This event will feature an array of artisans and food vendors, exciting cultural entertainment, and the much-anticipated 'Best Taste' Oaxacan Mole contest.
All FREE to enter with your paid gate admission.
