Cinco de Mayo is always a day of wild parties no matter where you are, but I can tell you that New York City is definitely the best place to celebrate. If you like to drink, you can pay a standard fee of $15 dollars and participate in the NYC Bar Crawl. Dozens of bars participate in this event, so feel free to hop from place to place. Johnny Utah’s also offers a bull-riding contest. Yes, you get to ride on the mechanical bull and prove what a real cowboy or cowgirl you are, and there is even a chili pepper eating contest. So whether you like to eat or drink or even if mechanical bull riding is your thing, you can always find an awesome way to celebrate Cinco de Mayo in New York City. You don’t have to spend much to make a lot of great memories on this special day in Mexican History.
