🇲🇽✨It was truly inspiring to see our diverse San Jose community come together at City Hall to celebrate El Grito and honor Mexico’s War of Independence Day. The evening was alive with vibrant culture, music, stunning horses, traditional performances, and delicious food!

On September 15, 1810, Miguel Hidalgo, a priest from the small town of Dolores near Guanajuato, made a bold decision that would forever change the course of Mexican history. His leadership sparked a revolution for freedom, and his legacy lives on today. We are proud to continue this rich tradition here in San Jose!

A huge thank you to @omartorresd3, @domingocandelasd8, @peterortiz, @mayomattmahn, @cityofsanjose, Comité de Fiestas Patrias, and the Mexican Consulate for making this event possible and for leading the celebration.

Let’s keep the spirit of freedom and community strong- together, we honor history and celebrate the future. ¡Viva México!

✨We had an incredible time celebrating Mexican Independence and our rich cultural heritage at the 2nd annual Cultura in the Park at César Chávez Park! The event was filled with delicious food, lively music, talented performers, local vendors, lowriders, and fun activities for kids. A big shoutout to @flowerinspanish for leading this amazing effort.

It was an honor to be a sponsor of such a vibrant celebration, and we can’t wait to keep the tradition alive and bring even more energy next year. Thank you to everyone who joined us!
