During these festivities, Mariachi bands perform or Mexican folk music is played, and traditional Mexican dancing is also present. People also feast on traditional Mexican dishes such as enchiladas, salsa, tacos, and tortilla chips.

Play Mexican Music

For Cinco de Mayo celebrations, it is great to visit websites where you can hire a mariachi band to perform at your party if you can afford this. If not, you can always create a Mexican-themed playlist instead. You can browse online to see Mexico’s top billboard songs to know what’s popular today. Another option for you is to perform Mexican songs if you and your other family members know how to play the guitar or the maracas.

Adorn Your Home with Mexican-style Decorations

As mentioned earlier, Cinco de Mayo parties often feature red, white, and green colours since these are the colours that represent the Mexican flag. You can get balloons and streamers in these colours and you can also check out a party prop store to purchase a Mexican flag that can be hung somewhere in your home. For the dining area, you can set up brightly collared tableware; and for an excellent option, you can add the piñata to your Cinco de Mayo party.

 

If you’re wondering where you can purchase piñatas, just visit a party store and you’ll be able to find one for your celebration. Since you’re aiming for the red, green, and white theme, it’s best to search for one around the time of the celebration itself, or if you want to bring out your creative side, you can also make your own piñata for your Cinco de Mayo party.

 

If you’re not into the piñata, you can instead, use luminaries which are another great option to keep to the tradition. Luminaries are tin candle holders that have punched holes to create a starry night effect.

 

 

Play the Lotería Game With Some Friends

Usually, players use beans to mark their board. Players who first complete the established rules must shout “Lotería!” You can also make this more exciting by playing the game for nickel or dollars.

Whistlecopter Toys

In a Lotería game set, a deck of fifty-four cards with colourful images and ten boards with random patterns of 16 images are present. Before the game begins, rules will be made and an announcer will be picked. After selecting a card from the deck, the announcer may choose to make riddles or say humorous things to give other players a hint about what is on the card.

 

 

 

 

Everyone Dances Friends and Family

Dancing is one of the activities done during the celebration of Cinco de Mayo and the Mexican Hat Dance is the most popular for the occasion. There are also other Latin dances such as folk-lorico, salsa, and rumba. You can either hire a professional to teach the partygoers some dances or browse online for videos that can teach you how to do these dances.
