And that's only the beginning. Here's what's happening throughout the weekend:

๐Ÿฅ SUNDAY IS THE BIG DAY! Cicero's Mexican Independence Day Parade โ€” one of the largest in the Chicagoland area โ€” steps off at NOON on Cermak Road! The parade begins at 49th Ave. in front of Town Hall and travels west along Cermak to 59th Ct.

ALL of our D99 schools will be walking in the parade! You'll also see performances from our D99 Band, Unity Dance Team, and other school clubs and groups along the parade route!

The festivities officially come to a close with an EL GRITO celebration Sunday night at 9 p.m. at the festival!
