Over the last decades Cinco de Mayo has gained increasing popularity in the Mexican-American population of the United States for the celebration of Mexican culture, heritage, cuisine, dance and music, comparable to St. Patrick’s Day of the Irish. Parades are staged and events, celebrations and ceremonies are held on this day, especially in areas in the Southwest that have large populations of Americans of Mexican descent. Celebrate Cinco De Mayo the Miami way! On this day you’ll find no shortage of beer, tequila, and tacos all around the city. Brickell, Wynwood, and South Beach are some […]
