Margarita Madness 2026

The 12th Annual Margarita Madness is back! Join us Friday, August 21st, 2026 for a high-energy night fueled by tequila, a live DJ, and unbeatable skyline views.

Sip and savor handcrafted margaritas and light bites from some of the city’s top bars and restaurants—all set on the iconic Purple People Bridge. Cast your vote for the People’s Choice Best Margarita, and no matter who takes the crown, you’ll be winning.

And here’s the real kicker: the bridge itself is getting a glow up. A brand-new $2 million color-changing LED lighting system is on the way—lighting up red for the Reds, orange for the Bengals, and going fully electric for Margarita Madness. By August, the bridge will look completely different after dark… and you’ll be among the first to experience its next era.

Stay tuned for the 2026 restaurant lineup and more event details!

This event is rain or shine. All tickets are final sale and all guests must be age 21+.
