Here we go again! It’s time for our next 70th event! We’re teaming up with a few of our fabulous neighbors and favorite food trucks to bring you the Vintage Vegas Street Food Throwdown.

We’re having a face to face cook off featuring some classic dishes in honor of El Cortez’s Vintage Menu. Each truck will be pulling out all the stops to impress our judges and take home the gold. We’ve lined up some tough critics and foodies including: Denise Valdes from 8 News Now, John Civitello Food & Beverage Director at El Cortez, Jerry Misko local visionary artist, and Las Vegas’s own Mayor Carolyn Goodman.

El Cortez will also be offering a bar serving our classic cocktails and Landshark and Shock Top will have their energetic representatives present with a whole lot of fun planned.

Thee Swank Bastards will be performing courtesy of Neon Reverb. Don’t miss all the excitement and be sure and check out all the incredible bars and business in the area as well!
