After the parade is over, participants can stay for music and dance. There will be a presentation by the Quad Cities Ballet Folklorico and the Glenview Mariachi Band will delight participants with great music. Food vendors will be present to offer their best dishes to the public. After the presentations stay and dance the night away because there will be dance from 6PM to 9:30PM.
