2025 Cinco de Mayo Parade Application
Saturday, May 3, 2025
We are pleased to invite your involvement as a participant in the Cinco de Mayo "Celebrate Culture" Parade!
The Cinco de Mayo Festival and Parade has deep roots in the Denver community as one of the largest and longest running cultural events in Colorado.
The Cinco de Mayo Festival and Parade is a fun family oriented event with special attractions, musical acts, Folklorico dancers, Mariachis and some of the most delicious Mexican cuisine Colorado has to offer.
The event was started in 1988 by NEWSED Community Development Corporation (www.newsed.org) as a neighborhood street fair to showcase Mexican heritage. By 1995, the festival had outgrown its location and moved to Denver's Historic Civic Center Park where it took its place among Colorado's top four outdoor food and entertainment events. Although the event attracts approximately 70% Hispanic attendees, a large cross section of the community is represented including all races and cultural heritages. The Cinco de Mayo Parade kicks off the Festival on the morning of Saturday, May 3, 2025 at 11:00AM.
