There will be fun for the entire family, with music features from “Mariachi Invasor d Mexico”, performing some festive classics. Come enjoy the taste of homemade tamales from “Sabor the Michoacan”, while young ones will be able to participate in braking of pinatas to collect sweets and Mexican flavor treats. Music will be playing throughout the evening, but will wrap up with the live band, “Cuban Son”, playing hot Caribbean tunes that will let you dance the night away! See you at the “2 de Mayo Fiesta”!
