Welcome to the Fiesta!
Cinco de Mayo, meaning the “Fifth of May” in Spanish, is a special day to celebrate the bravery and spirit of the Mexican people. On this day in 1862, a small group of soldiers won an incredible victory at the Battle of Puebla. This event has since become a global symbol of strength and heritage.
While it is often mistaken for Mexico’s Independence Day (which is September 16th), Cinco de Mayo is a unique opportunity to explore Mexican culture through music, food, and colorful traditions.
