The Portland Cinco de Mayo Fiesta is an annual festival in Portland, Oregon, United States.[1] Described as the city's largest celebration of Mexican culture[2][3] and Oregon's largest "multicultural celebration",[4][5] the event is hosted by the Portland Guadalajara Sister City Association and features a carnival with amusement rides, mariachi, and food vendors.[6][7]

In 2025, the festival's public naturalization ceremony was canceled because of budget cuts.[4]
