🎉 **Join Us for a Night of Celebration and Culture!** 🎉
Come and honor the incredible legacy of Bob Ontiveros, co-founder of Mercado on Fifth, who dreamed of uniting our community and celebrating Hispanic culture through the support of local businesses. 🌟
Last year, Group O brought the party, and they’re back to do it again! This year, get ready to groove to the beats of the legendary CEO, Mr. DJ ICE, and catch the electrifying main act, Sonora Dinamita de Colombia, right on 12th Street. 🎵💃
Mark your calendars and let’s make this a night to remember! 🌈✨
¡Juntos Somos Mercado!
Mercado on Fifth is an outdoor event from 5-10 p.m. every Friday on 5th Ave. between 11th and 12th streets in Moline.
The weekly gathering features food trucks, produce/retail vendors, live entertainment and activities for children. Mercado’s 2024 summer season will run every Friday night from May 24 – Sept. 27. Mercado aims to attract more people to the Floreciente neighborhood and increase community involvement and pride by offering economic opportunities to small and minority-owned businesses. Patrons can enjoy cultural entertainment from area musicians, dance groups and artists. The market also provides learning opportunities for children and information about local nonprofits for adults.
Join us at Mercado, and be part of our mission to strengthen the community!
