Fans of Mexican cuisine will want to get up to Walthamstow this month. On 16th and 17th September, local brewery Signature Brew will be hosting the second edition of The Tacover, a food fest dedicated to all things tacos. This is the UK's largest taco festival, and following a successful weekend of taco-themed events in May, the festival is back for more.

The theme for The Tacover 2.0 is the evolution of the taco, with vendors encouraged to get creative and bring diners something new. As well as a traditional flavour combo and a vegan offering, every vendor will be offering their own unique take on a fusion taco made with inspiring ingredients. In addition to vegan tacos, there will also be gluten-free and halal-friendly options, with prices capped at £4 per taco so that everyone can get in on the fun. Food comes courtesy of traders from across the UK, including some London favourites.

Naturally, Signature Brew is providing the drinks but with the event's sponsors including Jarritos, Tiempo Tequila, and Las Olas Rum, there are loads of options if beer isn't your thing. The festival is running family-friendly daytime sessions as well as lively nights. During the final session on Sunday, awards will be handed out to the festival's top tacos. Head over to Signature Brew's website to get your tickets now.
