National Taco Day in the United States is now officially celebrated on the first Tuesday of October. In 2025, National Taco Day falls on Tuesday, October 7. This change was made in 2024 after Taco Bell successfully campaigned to move the holiday from the previously fixed date of October 4 to always align with Taco Tuesday, making it a permanent Tuesday celebration going forward.
Previously, National Taco Day had been observed on October 4 regardless of the day of the week, but since 2024 it is anchored to the first Tuesday of October to coincide with the popular "Taco Tuesday" tradition.
Therefore, for 2025 and the coming years, National Taco Day is celebrated on the first Tuesday of October, which is October 7 in 2025.
