XXVI TacoBurritoAThon was the twenty-sixth iteration of TacoBurritoAThon. It was held on Saturday, July 22, 2023, in Ellerton Fosby.
Bidding
Bidding for TacoBurritoAThons in the Summer 2023 was opened on April 16, 2023 and closed on April 29. All four Applicant Cities in Ellerton Fosby, Hendon, Miu Wan, and Waterville advanced to the Candidacy stage. Notably, Miu Wan was the only city owned by a player who did not previously host TacoBurritoAThon. Hendon had hosted XIX TacoBurritoAThon, Waterville had hosted XVIII TacoBurritoAThon, and Ellerton Fosby's mayor, AP_Red, was also the mayor of Whiteley which hosted V TacoBurritoAThon.
On May 12, 2023, it was announced that Miu Wan and Ellerton Fosby were awarded XXV and XXVI TacoBurritoAThon, respectively. Initially, it was announced on June 3rd that XXVI TacoBurritoAThon would be held on July 15, two days after the anniversary. However, a conflict occurred when the second session of The Amazing Race 13 was announced for the same date on June 15. This inadvertent conflict resulted in hasty planning to move the date of XXVI TacoBurritoAThon. Eventually, it was agreed that XXVI TacoBurritoAThon would be moved forward one week to July 22. At the same time, The Amazing Race agreed not to schedule a session on July 22; the third session would eventually be scheduled for the following Monday, July 24.
