Fiesta Broadway is the largest Cinco de Mayo celebration in the world. Half a million people come out for this annual street party covering 24 square blocks of Downtown Los Angeles. The main event runs just over a mile along Broadway from the Main Stage at Olympic at the south end to another stage at 1st Street to the north. A third stage is located at 9th Street. In between you'll find lots of food, fun and games for the whole family. Although ostensibly celebrating the Fifth of May, the event takes place the last Sunday of April.

When: The last Sunday in April
Where: Broadway, from 1st Street to Olympic in Downtown Los Angeles
Cost: Free
Parking: There are pay parking lots and structures outside the street closure area, but don't even try; take the Metro.
Metro: Red Line to Civic Center or Pershing Square, Blue Line to 7th Street and walk 5 blocks or transfer to Red Line.
