Cinco de Mayo

Cinco de Mayo

Organised by Newtongrange Community Garden

Saturday 2 May, noon

Newtongrange Community Garden

This event is open to the public. Please register in advance.

Join us at the Community Garden for a vibrant Cinco de Mayo celebration! As part of Demystifying Death Week, we’re coming together to honour and celebrate the lives of loved ones we’ve lost, inspired by the beautiful remembrance traditions of Día de los Muertos.

Bring along a cherished photo and craft a special frame to hang on our ofrenda tree—a shared space of memory, love, and reflection.

Wear your brightest colours and enjoy a lively atmosphere filled with traditional Mexican music, face painting, and even a bouncy castle for some extra fun. Savour delicious food specially prepared by Lepords & Lillies Event as we gather outdoors to share memories, laughter, and joy.

Let’s celebrate life together in a warm, welcoming space—everyone is invited!

This is a pay-what-you-can event, but tickets are required—please book in advance to secure your place.
