Motel Mexicana host Cinco De Mayo festival for Bank Holiday Weekend

Newcastle’s newest venue is adding extra flavour to the upcoming bank holiday weekend, with a celebration of Mexico. 

Brand-new bar and restaurant Motel Mexicana is hosting a Cinco De Mayo fiesta, which begins on Friday, May 3 and will continue until Sunday, May 5, which is when the special day is celebrated in Mexico. 

In Mexico, May 5 is celebrated annually, as it marks the time of 1862 when the Mexicans were victorious in their fight with the second French Empire. 

Newly opened bar, restaurant, motel and rooftop venue Motel Mexicana,  will be paying homage to their roots, by celebrating the special day with a three-day long festival. 

As part of the celebrations, Motel Mexicana will be hosting a bottomless brunch on both Saturday, May 4 and Sunday, May 5, as well as an exciting two-for-one cocktail offer, which will be available from 12pm until 5pm.

There is also an enhanced bottomless brunch available to book, which is priced at £49 per person, named El Presidente. This brunch will include extras such as a dessert course of churros, as well as classic cocktails and premium draft beer. 

Motel Mexicana also has a packed programme of live music and entertainment being held over the course of their Cinco De Mayo festival. 

Motel Mexicana is located on Mosley Street, in the venue previously occupied by nightclub Bijoux.  The venue opened recently, and has already become popular, especially due to its Taco Tuesdays, where tacos can be enjoyed for only £2.50 each. 

The venue also has an upper level area, which can be booked for private parties.
