Most Interesting Thing I learned: A lot of people think Cinco de Mayo celebrates Mexican Independence Day, but it really celebrates the Mexican Army beating the French in a big battle. My Dad told me this, I didn't learn it at the festival.
Cinco de Mayo Festival
This festival is about Mexican and Latin culture. They had lots of live music with dancers in colorful costumes. There was a long line for food, they needed more vendors, and a number of booths with crafts for sale. The festival was much smaller then I expected. It would be good to see if you were already downtown, and had a blanket to sit on and watch the bands.
