LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Plaza Mexico celebrates Mexico's victory at the Battle of Puebla with its annual Cinco de Mayo event full of tradition, culture, music, and community on May 3, 2026, from 2:00 pm to 10:00 pm.
Comité Mexicano Cívico Patriótico will join the celebration by conducting a Cinco de Mayo Civic Ceremony. As part of the ceremony, they will be joined by the military band Aguilas de Mexicali and participating actors personifying historical figures.
LA Galaxy will join us with a special inflatable wall that mimics a soccer goal, letting fans shoot a ball into one of five targets. This is part of the LA Galaxy's decades-long tradition of honoring the rich traditions, backgrounds, and cultures of its fans, players, and staff.
The festivities include musical guests Plenazo Tribe, a vibrant musical collective that was part of Bad Bunny's halftime show at the Super Bowl earlier this year. Also performing are Los Caminantes, Manuel Bernal y Sus Allegados, Grupo Fuerza Letal, Buknas de Culiacan, El Internacional Grupo La Migra, Josie Sánchez, Gabriel Arteaga, Banda El Rosario de Jalisco, Roció La Tigrita, Elvira Pérez, Jazmyne Maravilla, and El Chilaquil with Nallely as the host.
Lastly, this celebration will feature food vendors and arts & crafts for the entire family.

Cinco de Mayo is celebrated annually on May 5, commemorating the Mexican army's victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under General Ignacio Zaragoza. The victory provided a moral boost for Mexico and, some argue, prevented France from aiding the Confederacy during the American Civil War.
Plaza Mexico would like to thank many of the 'mercado' tenants for their support, as well as partners: LA Galaxy, Telemundo 52, and WSS.
Throughout 2026, Plaza Mexico will be your go-to spot for programming a variety of events—from lively festivals and artisan markets to kids' activities, live music, and community celebrations.
