May 5 is a festive holiday for Mexicans. On May 5 us, Mexicans usually get the family together eat, get drunk and have lots of fun. May 5 is mostly celebrated in the state of Puebla. It is meant to celebrate the Mexicans victory against the French in the Battle of Puebla. This day is a celebration of Mexican victory and pride. 'El Cinco de Mayo' is a Mexicans version of the Americans 4th of July, because it is a sign of their independence, but the real Independence day of Mexico is on September 16. Cinco de Mayo will always be a family day for Mexicans. =]
