• The tour will bring $6 margaritas to one Chipotle restaurant every weekend in October, with stops in Denver, New York, Dallas, Los Angeles and New Orleans for a good time, not a long time

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Sep 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) today announced the "Summon the Spirits Tour," a five-city pop-up tour bringing back its fan-favorite margarita for a limited time ahead of Boorito, the brand's annual Halloween tradition. For years, fans have kept the discontinued drink alive online through nostalgic TikToks, throwback photos and requests for its return (see HERE, HERE) with users commenting "those margs were fireee," and "they need to run that back," and "I really grew up in the wrong era."

Every weekend in October, the margarita will rise again at a new Chipotle restaurant, beginning in the brand's founding city of Denver, followed by stops in New York, Dallas and Los Angeles before a Halloweekend finale in New Orleans. Guests 21 and older can enjoy a Chipotle Margarita for just $6, made with five real ingredients: premium tequila, triple sec, citrus juice, agave nectar and a fresh lime wedge.

"Fans never stopped talking about our margaritas after they left the menu, so Halloween felt like the perfect time to revive a Chipotle classic," said Stephanie Perdue, Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing. "For five weekends, we're giving fans the chance to rediscover the iconic Chipotle Margarita, made with just five real ingredients and the same simplicity we bring to our food."
