CT Guide To Cinco De Mayo 2026 Events, Bars, Specials, & Catering Features Cinco de Mayo Mexican Holiday Cocktails Tequila Homepage Hannah Goodman April 29, 2026 Cinco de Mayo is less than a week away and it just so happens to land on a Tuesday, aka TACO TUESDAY! How perfect is that?! This year it’s a Cinco de Mayo-Taco Tuesday extravaganza and whether you’re staying in or going out, this list has got everything you may need to make the holiday special. Several places throughout Connecticut offer taco kits, pre-made margaritas, apps, and sides – making it easy to stay in and party it up with your friends, family, cats, dogs, etc…we don’t discriminate here. You can also hit the town (any town!) all weekend long leading up to the big day. As long as you’re decked out in your best party hat and dancing shoes – the heels that are too tall and you swore you’d never wear them again because the last time you wound up twisting your ankle on the dance floor but you didn’t even feel the pain because of all the great tequila shots…yeah, you know the ones. We hope everyone has fun and enjoys the holiday responsibly. Get out there and show your local small businesses the utmost support! Read More
