Celebrate National Taco Day 2026 at Puesto
National Taco Day falls on Tuesday, October 6, and Puesto is making it golden. Order a three-taco plate at any Puesto location and you could find a Golden Ticket or Rose Gold Ticket under your plate.
It's our favorite day of the year to celebrate what we do best: Mexican-inspired tacos built on hand-pressed, organic blue corn tortillas. This year, a few lucky guests will walk away with more than a full stomach.
How the Puesto Golden Ticket Works
The Puesto Golden Ticket is back for National Taco Day. All day on October 6, we'll attach special tickets at random to the bottom of three-taco plates ordered for dine-in. There are two prizes to look for:
- Golden Ticket: redeemable for a Puesto gift card to use on a future visit.
- Rose Gold Ticket: redeemable for an exclusive bag full of Puesto merch.
Tickets are limited and available while supplies last, so the earlier you come in, the better your odds.
