Celebrate Cinco de Mayo on the Gulf Coast

Make your next Destin vacation truly spectacular with a weekend of Cinco de Mayo festivities on the Gulf Coast. The annual festival in Destin is a unique celebration of freedom and democracy filled with sunshine, music, food, folklore and fun.

Held each May, the Cinco de Mayo festival in Destin begins Saturday with a pub crawl through HarborWalk Village. Starting at 6pm, those who want to participate can purchase a $10 wristband for drink specials at each location. The pub crawl will include local favorites such as Crab Island Cantina, Margaritaville and Coyote Ugly Saloon. There will also be live Latin themed entertainment and fun contests at most of the venues.

On Sunday, Destin locals and visitors can enjoy live entertainment as well. Guests can cheer on Roller Derby Girls at the 3rd annual Running of the Bulls or watch the Macho Nacho eating contest on the harbor. There will be folkloric dancers and pinata breaking throughout the day. To end the spectacular weekend, a fireworks show will be held over the harbor for everyone in the city to enjoy.
