Discover Victoria, Texas is seeking volunteers and sponsors to help make the City’s first-ever Tejas Fest a success.

The free community festival will be Oct. 4-5 at the newly expanded De Leon Plaza in downtown Victoria. The event will feature a packed lineup of Tejano artist with headliner Bobby Pulido and Texas country music with headliner The Josh Abbott Band.

There will also be a vendor market hosted by Mother Cluckers Downtown, a car show hosted by the Hot Rod Tour of Texas, a Kid’s Corral hosted by the Victoria Public Library and many more activities that will be announced soon.
