Detroit Cinco de Mayo Parade…Southwest Detroit community celebrates Hispanic holiday with lowriders, music, and unity.
As May 5th approaches, you can feel the excitement sizzle in the neighborhoods of southwest Detroit while the community prepares for its annual Cinco de Mayo parade. This year, the sizzle led to a boiling point as the number of spectators and participants grew considerably since the previous event, lining Vernor Hwy in anticipation.
In addition to various car clubs and solo riders in and around Detroit—Majestics, Uce, Por Vida, Switch, Dreams II Reality, and GoodTimes—Ohio’s chapter of Stylistics also joined the festivities to impress the crowd with their clean rides and three wheel action making this year’s parade a success and the lowriders a crowd pleaser from beginning to end. The parade was also helped along by numerous community organizations and businesses, as well as local schools, bands, and DJ’s.
This event was attended by a diverse crowd as young and old, urban and suburban, black, white, brown, and everything in between enjoyed the sights and the sun from the sidelines. The parade culminated in a car show and picnic put together by GoodTimes car club at Clark Park. This picnic provided an opportunity for spectators to get a closer look at the lowriders featured in the parade as well as a number of other cars who came to park, enjoy the atmosphere, and share their rides. A great time was had by all and the bar has been raised for next year’s event!
