Fiesta Atlanta at Centennial Olympic Park

The local landmark goes decidedly south of the border with this daylong Cinco de Mayo rave up. Internationally, nationally and locally known Latin music artists deliver some audio excitement. Mariachi Universitario, Conjunto Atardecer and Carina Aguilar are just a few of the performers scheduled across two stages. A 5K steps off at 9:30 a.m., and the last act hits the stage at 6:20 p.m. Along with the music you’ll find youth soccer clinics, free product samples from event sponsors, cultural arts and crafts, and fiesta-themed food.

10 a.m. May 5. Free. Centennial Olympic Park, 265 Centennial Olympic Park Drive NW, Atlanta. 404-350-0200, www.fiestaatlanta.com.
