It's the event we all look forward to -- the October feast also known as Tucson Meet Yourself.
With fantastic music and dance performances, the festival makes for a weekend to remember. Over the years though, the festival has stood out for the plethora of freshly prepared food options. So much so, that many locals now refer to the festival as Tucson EAT Yourself!
