The 5th annual Long Beach International Tamale Festival took place in Long Beach, California on December 7, 2025. The event was held at the Scottish Rite Masonic Center at 855 Elm Ave. Long Beach, CA 90813 from 1:00 to 7:00 pm.
There were lots of award winning tamales, Mexican food, vendors, tequila tasting, micheladas, folklorico dancers, Santa Claus and more. The event was outdoors in the 57,000 sf parking lot behind the Scottish Rite Masonic Center. VIP ticket holders didn't have to wait. General Admission visitors had to wait in a long line that wrapped around the block because they had to check IDs because the event served alcohol. I got there at 1:30 and didn't get in for 40 minutes because of the line. General Admission was supposed to be free if you registered but they ended up charging people $15 each to get in. VIP was $75 maybe. Thankfully I had a free ticket.
There were lots of people at the event early just like me. In fact there were so many people that there weren't enough places to sit and eat. The VIP had their own area which was totally empty. There were lines for tamales at a few of the tamale booths.
The tamales were the best I've ever had! They all charged the same $6 each but these tamales were HUGE! They had beef, pork, chicken, vegetarian, vegan, corn, cheese and dessert tamales like strawberry, pineapple and cheesecake. The churro vendor made the most amazing desserts! They were $15 but they were huge on mini waffles or in huge waffle cones with everything.
The Scottish Rite Masonic Center used to be the Ernest Borgnine Theatre. It's a historical building built in 1926.
