This inaugural three-day festival (which will be held in the Little Village neighborhood), is long overdue! It will feature plenty of live music, food, arts & crafts, activities for families and children and much more.

A celebration of South-of-the-border culture that's enjoyed worldwide, Cinco de Mayo (or "5th of May") commemorates the Mexican army's unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.
