Tejas Fest, the City of Victoria’s free community festival that debuted during our bicentennial year, will return to downtown Victoria Oct. 3-4.

Like the first Tejas Fest in 2024, the festival will include features of previous community festivals, such as Bootfest, while including its own unique elements to celebrate everything that makes Victoria “True to Tejas.”

Event organizers plan to bring back many of the most popular attractions from the first Tejas Fest—including the car show, corn hole tournament, lucha libre and tamale-eating contest—while exploring the possibility of adding some brand-new activities this year.
