It's time to find those oversized jerseys and trucker hats from the back of your closet in Pittsburgh. A blast from the past is hitting Washington County with the debut of the Tacos and Tequila Festival. The event, co-produced by the Washington Wild Things and Social Entertainment, promises a nostalgic lineup featuring artists like Lil Jon, Chingy, and Trick Daddy. Slated for June 28 at Wild Things Park, the festival aims to whisk attendees back to the early 2000s when the featured artists reigned supreme on the charts.

The throwback theme extends beyond the music. Festival-goers can indulge in various tacos, handcrafted margaritas, tequila shot bars, and quirky side attractions. According to WTAE, fans will also be treated to an exotic car showcase, Lucha Libre wrestling, and even a chihuahua beauty pageant—because what's a celebration of 2000s culture without a nod to the iconic pocket-sized pooches of that era? And, of course, there's the music lineup: Petey Pablo, Paul Wall, Mike Jones, Twista, and DJ Ashton Martin are also joining the fest. But remember, you'll need to flash a 21 or older ID to get in.

An event of this caliber is a big move for the partnering producers. WPXI reported that the festival's dedicated website, tacosandtequilapittsburgh.com, provides a full breakdown of ticket prices and event details.
