Guzman y Gomez rolls out week-long Cinco de Mayo celebrations with kids’ activities, dining deals, and a staycation giveaway

Guzman y Gomez (GYG) is turning up the heat this May with a week-long Cinco de Mayo fiesta, perfectly timed with the long Labour Day weekend.

From 1 to 8 May, expect a line-up of family-friendly activities, wallet-friendly deals, and festive vibes across GYG outlets islandwide, as they go full fiesta mode to mark the occasion.

Cinco de Mayo decor and face-painting to get you in the party spirit

Cinco de Mayo, celebrated on 5 May, marks Mexico’s underdog victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla in 1862, a triumph against the odds that continues to be celebrated around the world today.

This year, the festivities get an extra boost thanks to the Labour Day public holiday. Translation: more time to makan, hang out, and soak in the fiesta vibes.

From 1 to 8 May, GYG outlets across the island will be dressed in colourful Cinco de Mayo decor, transforming each space into a lively, family-friendly fiesta filled with bright colours, festive touches, and plenty of photo-worthy corners.

To dial up the fun even further, GYG is bringing back their annual Cinco de Mayo face-painting activity, a crowd favourite for families.

Happening across nine outlets, this year’s edition spans two days (2 and 3 May), so more kids can join in on the fun — and parents get more chances for cute photo ops.

Face painting will be available on both days at i12 Katong, Dunearn Village, OrchardGateway, and Star Vista, and on 3 May only at ION Orchard, Northpoint, Funan Mall, Jewel Changi Airport, and Pasir Ris Mall.
