El Gran Baile de Cinco

Now in its 16th year, El Gran Baile de Cinco continues to be the premiere Cinco de Mayo celebration in Los Angeles. Held at a historic private residence constructed in 1852, this event offers a variety of entertainment in an extraordinary setting.

As in the past, this year’s event features live music performances, dancing, auctions, casino games and site tours. This year’s guests will also enjoy a gourmet dinner with a champagne and chocolate bar.

El Gran Baile de Cinco has grown into the largest fundraiser of the year for Para Los Niños, raising over $1 million last year for educational and social services aimed at creating academic success and social well-being for children, youth and families. The organization aims to reach $1 million again this year, with the help of sponsors, underwriters and donors like you.
