Are we ready for TACO TOUR?
The weather is looking perfect and here is some of the information you need.
Taco Tour Manchester, an event by the Greater Manchester Chamber, presented by Dartmouth Health, Delta Dental, and the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, will return to Downtown Manchester, NH on Thursday, May 28, 2026, from 4 - 8 p.m. EST.
With more than 20,000 attendees and 100+ food and beverage participants throughout downtown Manchester, Taco Tour covers a large footprint across the city. This year, attendees will have access to a new interactive map designed to help them navigate the event more easily.
Taco Tour Manchester 2026 includes a new interactive map that allows attendees to browse participating restaurants and vendors, filter by dietary restrictions, desserts, beverages, and more, and plan their route. The mobile-friendly map is designed to help attendees navigate the event and identify the stops that best fit their preferences.
For those who love the tradition of a printed map, don't worry - the classic Taco Tour printed map is available at the Greater Manchester Chamber - NH office at 54 Hanover Street
The interactive experience is an addition, not a replacement, built for the growing community of attendees who want to plan and move through the tour with intention.
Visit tacotourmanchester.com/map to explore the maps and start planning your route today. Attendees can also text Taco2026 to 65513 to receive event updates and a link to the new interactive map.
The evening kicks off at 3:30 p.m. with the all-new Taco Tour Manchester Inaugural Taco Ceremony at Veterans Park - open to the public for the first time in event history. What was once a small, exclusive gathering for media and press is coming to the community in 2026, complete with entertainment and free giveaways.
This year's Grand Marshal will be drawn live at the ceremony - one lucky community member will take the stage and eat the inaugural taco to officially open the tour.
*** You must be present at Veterans Park for the Inaugural Taco Ceremony at 3:30 p.m. to win.
Two community members will win and choose a guest to join their adventure. Enter at tacotourmanchester.com before Tuesday, May 26th at 8 pm for your chance to skip the lines, have your tacos paid for, and experience Taco Tour Manchester in style.
Taco Tour Manchester 2026 also features two stages of live music with performances throughout the night, sponsor booths, fun giveaways, a family zone, and a brand new sensory-friendly area where attendees can step away from the crowd and recharge.
Volunteers are needed to assist with line management and attendee experience - individuals and groups interested in volunteering should email [email protected].
