Doja Cat, Benson Boone & Taco Bell's Wildest Menu Drops Hit Peacock March 10
In a world where fast-food consumers are arguing over whether Starbucks or Dunkin’ has better coffee, whether Popeyes or Chick-fil-A has better chicken sandwiches, and whether McDonald's or Burger King has the best burger, Taco Bell pretty much stands in a class of its own. Sure, Taco Bell has direct competitors like Del Taco, but it’s hard to argue that any direct competitor has amassed the popularity like the home of the Chalupa, Gordita, and classic Mexican pizza.
Part of why Taco Bell remains a head above the rest is the company’s willingness to constantly reinvent its menu. The fast-food chain has cranked out a constant flow of new items, and it plans to continue on with this practice in 2026. In fact, on March 10, Taco Bell streams its famous Live Más LIVE: A Night at The Palladium event, where it plans to unveil over 20 new menu items. Not only that, but the company has some big names helping to make the exciting reveal.
Doja Cat, Anderson.Paak, Vince Staples, and More Help Taco Bell Roll Out New Menu Items
According to the Taco Bell press release, this year’s one-night-only Live Más LIVE: A Night at The Palladium will be hosted by rapper and Netflix star Vince Staples. Additionally, “Ariana Madix, Ashley Park, Benson Boone, Ciara Miller, Davante Adams, Devon Walker, DJ Pee .Wee (aka Anderson .Paak), Doja Cat, Ego Nwodim, Fernando Mendoza, Myke Towers, Yeat and more” are expected to make appearances. No confirmation at this time if appearances will equate to performances from those like Paak and Doja Cat, but the event is being staged as a “variety show.”
The event will stream on Peacock on March 10. However, it’s important to note that the live show will be recorded prior to then.
And in some great news for fans, a few Taco Bell Rewards Members will have the opportunity to score a ticket to Live Más LIVE: A Night at The Palladium. As the press release states, “Eligible members should keep an eye out for an email invitation on 2/24 with further details.”
What Are the New Items Taco Bell is Unveiling at Live Más LIVE: A Night at The Palladium?
Taco Bell is keeping its 2026 new menu items under wraps for now. The company has only said, “Taco Bell will pull back the purple curtain on over 20 next-level menu innovations – from saucy and crispy creations to nostalgic throwbacks and brand-first never-before-seen formats.”
With that being said, over the last few years, Taco Bell has unveiled several popular items, perhaps none more notable than the famous Nacho Fries. Last year, the company also debuted its Decades Y2K Menu, which wowed fans thrilled to see the return of items like the Caramel Apple Empanada, Cool Ranch® Doritos Locos Taco, and 7-Layer Burrito. So it’s anyone’s guess as to what’s next for Taco Bell. Personally speaking, I’d like to see the return of the Beefy Potato Burrito, and ironically, the debut of more low-carb options.
