Puerto Vallarta Chili Cook-Off

The Puerto Vallarta Chili Cook-Off is a family-friendly event featuring the best chili recipes from 20 local restaurants and individuals. 

The Cook-Off will again be held at Salón Rancho Alegre for the third time. We’ve had tremendous success at this venue and everybody seems to enjoy the location’s Mexican ambiance.

Tickets will be available at the event, but to reserve your seats it is best to purchase them online here.

You are invited to attend and sample the area’s best chili, listen and dance to 5 of Vallarta’s finest bands, visit our 6 beverage stops, find outstanding bargains at our silent auction, and try your luck with our raffle and 50/50 contests. There’s even a food court if you get tired of all the chili – as impossible as that seems. It’s a full, fun day and it’s all for charity.

Funds raised by the Puerto Vallarta Chili Cook-Off help various charities. Since 2023 our focus has been on funding Toys for Tots Puerto Vallarta.
