User Reviews Current avg. The Cinco de Mayo celebration is a great date to party and remember that Mexico defeated the French troops in the Battle of Puebla in 1862. I took my family to the 5 de Mayo celebration at the George R. Brown Convention Center, and had a lot of fun.
Every year gets bigger and better, well, maybe too noisy too.
The festivities sound great but like my compadres or comadres said Mexico is in North America. And Salsa music is from Puerto Rico not Mexico. Other than sounds like fun.
