Are you ready to party like it’s 1862? Seattle’s Ultimate Cinco de Mayo Festival is taking place this weekend and it’s going to be a fiesta you won’t forget!
For those who don’t know the official history, Cinco is a Mexican holiday that commemorates the Mexican army’s unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.
Of course, everyone loves to celebrate by drinking and eating Mexican cuisine. So what’s a better way to celebrate this historic day than with music, food, and drinks in downtown Seattle?
