About this Event
32 fearless competitors will face off with tortillas in hand and water in mouth, slapping their way to glory - and a grand prize of a year’s supply of tacos and margaritas from Market Place and Streat Latin.
It’s not just a slap fight - it’s a full-blown fiesta. Expect:
- Lucha Libre wrestling with masked warriors
- Live mariachi bands bringing the heat
- Free tacos and margaritas for spectators
- Spitting, laughter, and tortilla chaos
Competitors are scored on four deadly serious criteria:
- The satisfying slap sound
- The epic water spray distance
- Tortilla tearing
- Opponent’s reaction
Hosted by Instagram foodie sensation Fat Boi London, the tournament kicks off with theatrical wrestling action before the tortilla slapping madness begins.
We're challenging competitors to face off with water-filled mouths and tortillas in hand. The goal? Make your opponent spray water from laughter with the sheer force of your tortilla strike.
Holly Hilton, Marketing Director at Market Place:
"Prepare for chaos. Expect the unexpected. Tacos flying, margaritas pouring, crowds roaring and slaps so loud they echo into legend. This year, we don’t just turn it up to 11… we break the dial."
Andres De La Mora, founder of Streat Latin:
"Latin American culture is all about fun and playfulness. This is the perfect way to bring people together, showcase our flavours, and make Market Place Vauxhall the centre of London’s most ridiculous food fight!"
When: Saturday, 29th November, 14:00pm - 18:00pm
Where: Market Place Vauxhall, 7 S Lambeth Pl, London SW8 1SP
Warning: Side effects may include uncontrollable laughter, taco cravings, and severe tortilla envy.
