Mexican fiesta????

can anyone give me information about the mexican fiestas i have to write about it but i don't no where to get the information. thanks

wht kind of fiestas? dia de muertos,the independence day, the posadas, the carnavales, d铆a de reyes, valentines day, dia del ni帽o, dia de la madre, dia del padre, navidad, a帽o nuevo.

Dunno wht u need 2 know abt the fiestas but i can tell u most od the holidays in mex r celebrated with the family and they include something good 2 eat :P

In dia de muertos we use 2 make oferings 2 our dead family and friends with some basic things an offering includes (inciense, water, salt, candles, paper, sugar skulls, dead bread) and things the dead liked when they lived.

In the posadas we drink the typical ponche made with fuits and he sing the letania (talks abt mary and joseph looking 4 a place where 2 happened the birth of jesus), and we breake the pi帽atas tht also have a catholic meaning.

In the independence day we use 2 go out with friends 2 a pub or have dinner with the family and eat typical dishes like pozole, we all wait the moment in which the president "shouts" this classic "viiiiivvaaaa meexxicooooo".

ok. i'm mexican and I live in puebla ( is a mexican's estate ) my english is very bad so.... i will go to write in spanis.. ok

la verdad , en mexico hay muchas fiestas , no se a cual de ellas te refieras ; por ejemplo:

dia de muertos : es algo similar a "halowen" pero mas tradicional y artistico, nosotros no nos disfrasamos . solo rendimos culto a los muertos, les damos comida y adornamos sus lapidas.

dia de la independencia: lo mismo que ustedes pero en mexico ........

y podria seguir dandote informacion..... pero mejor te dejo una pag de internet ... ok

suerte:
y muchos besos

This is a generic description: basically are family parties and close friends invited, common food consist of Mole (a very spicy salsa), chicken and rice, beer or Tequila, a pi帽ata, mariachis or Norte帽os style music groups. On Northern areas, people is used to prepare meat on grill on the garden.

There are plenty of mexican holidays, the most reknown may be
1. February 5th. Constitution Day.
2. March 21st. Benito Juarez Birthday.
3. May 10th. Mother's Day
4. May 5th. Battle of Puebla.
5. February 24th. Flag Day.
6. September 16th. Independence Day
7. May 1st. Labour's day.
8. November 2nd. Day of the dead
9. November 20th: Revolution Day.
10. December 12th. Guadalupe Virgin Day
11. December 15th to 24th. Posadas (pinata parties)
12. December 24th. Christmas Eve (noche buena)
13. December 25th Christmas.
14. June 1st. Navy Day

That's it, I guess.

Think big party with music, dancing, food...a pinata for a birthday. Use some keywords on the internet for fiesta, holidays, Mexico.

the confussion starts here:

"fiesta" is the spanish word for "party", any party done by mexicans is a mexican party or fiesta mexicana (even birthdays). But, I don't want to be mean, just helpful; I think you are asking about mexican holidays, wich is actually what many people is answering: D铆a de muertos (dead's day, you celebrate dead family, not The Death), Independece day (september 16, and NO 5 de Mayo! that is a "gringada") and many others you have already.

....there are 14 MILLION ILLEGAL "*******" sneaky mexicans in the US.....and YOU have to actually get on here? There are probably some kids in your school who could tell you straight up ?? right there under your nose....you are going to get left behind....by those students actually wanting to work, regardless of NCLB, YOU will be left BEHIND on your own merit, or lack of merit rather !!!
