Celebrate Cinco De Mayo with These 21 Cool and Fun Backgrounds

The need for Cinco de Mayo backgrounds is here again. One of the most popular Mexican holidays, it is celebrated by all Mexican communities in the world. Cinco de Mayo is celebrated even by non-Mexican communities in the US. In fact, in recent decades, it has become more of an American holiday. Americans of Mexican descent use this time to raise awareness about cultivating and preserving their heritage and culture. Since it is that important, many web designers make sure to incorporate it into their web design when the holiday comes around.

For many American’s Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of Margaritas. Kidding aside, many Americans don’t actually know the significance of celebrating Cinco de Mayo. Many just know that it is a fun, colorful, and exciting holiday that must be celebrated.

Contrary to many’s belief, Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico’s Independence Day. It is simply a celebration of Mexico’s victory against the French forces in 1862. Although it is not Mexico’s Independence Day, the Mexican army’s unlikely victory against the French forces gave the country great hope and renewed confidence.
