If you were downtown on Saturday morning, you might have seen it! The 2025 LULAC District VIII Cinco de Mayo Parade was held to celebrate the cultural holiday. LULAC said it's the biggest Cinco de Mayo parade in the city.

What began as a national holiday in Mexico to celebrate the anniversary of the nation’s military victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, has evolved into a cultural celebration recognized throughout North America.

As Cinco de Mayo approaches, Houston restaurants and bars are offering taco deals, margarita specials and live entertainment leading up to the holiday on Monday
