34th Indio International Tamale Festival Returns to Downtown Indio December 5-6
The 34th annual Indio International Tamale Festival will return to downtown Indio in Riverside County, California, on December 5 and 6, taking over the streets around City Hall and Center Stage, including Miles Avenue, Smurr Street, Towne Street and Civic Center Drive. Admission is free.
Tamales are a traditional Mexican dish of masa dough filled with meats, cheese or vegetables, wrapped in corn husks or banana leaves and steamed. Vendors from the Coachella Valley and beyond will sell tamales in many styles along with other foods, and the festival will also feature shopping vendors, live performances by local and regional bands, and traditional Folklorico dancing.
The City of Indio has invited small, home-based and community tamale vendors to take part; all food vendors must meet City of Indio and Riverside County requirements. Vendor questions can be directed to the city's events office.
One of the Coachella Valley's largest annual food festivals, the event this year returns from its recent park venue to the downtown street footprint.
