Cinco De Mayo Weekend Silent Disco Party | 10:00pm | The Belmont
It’s widely believed that Cinco de Mayo is a celebration that commemorates Mexican independence. In actuality, it’s a celebration of the Mexican army’s victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. The More You Know…Here in the US, it’s become a great reason to get together, party, and drink some beer! With swanky interiors, skyline views, an ivy covered courtyard and three full service bars, The Belmont, located in the heart of downtown Austin is the perfect spot for a Quiet Clubbing Silent Disco. Tune into three live DJs spinning 3 different genres of music on stage all night and never leave the dance floor. Grab tickets here.
