Terrie Bannish on Atascadero’s Flavor Run | Tamale Fest Turns 10 in a Town That Refuses to Sit Still | Up+Adam
Tuesday, 28 April, 2026
Sponsored by The Mountain AirAtascadero is having a moment and if you’ve been paying attention, you can feel it. On this episode of Up+Adam, Adam sits down with Terrie Bannish from the City of Atascadero to talk about the 10th annual Tamale Fest and how it’s grown from a local event into one of the Central Coast’s biggest, most talked-about weekends. We’re talking tens of thousands of tamales sold in a single day, vendors coming in from all over California, and a community that continues to show up in a big way year after year.This conversation goes beyond the event itself. Adam and Terrie get into what’s really happening in Atascadero right now. The growth, the energy, the restaurants, the events calendar that just keeps rolling. From Fiesta Friday, which gives locals a chance to actually enjoy the vendors without the massive crowds, to Saturday’s full-scale takeover with live music, folklórico dancers, tamale competitions, and yes, the pet costume contest that Adam will be right in the middle of. There’s something for everyone here whether you’re coming for the food, the culture, or just a great day out on the Central Coast.• 10th Annual Tamale Fest in Atascadero • Fiesta Friday 5pm to 9pm with live music and early vendor access • Main event Saturday with 20 plus tamale vendors and 40,000 to 50,000 tamales expected to be sold • Pet costume contest hosted by Adam Montiel • Live performances including mariachi, folklórico dancers, and Brass Mash • Family friendly activities including bounce houses, rock climbing wall, and more • Proceeds from beverages support the Central Coast ZooWant to go?
