Cinco de Mayo on Cherokee Street Returns With a Bang [PHOTOS]
Thousands turned out for the comeback of Cinco de Mayo on Cherokee on May 7. The sun was shining, it wasn't too hot and the party roared back to life after a COVID-19-induced hiatus.
The People's Joy Parade was also featured among the party, allowing St. Louisans to celebrate what brings them happiness. After the parade, live music came back, drinks were flowing and party-goers danced it out. Here's what we saw on Cherokee Street.
