Mexican-Irish Festival Returns to Southwest Detroit

Maria Elena Rodriguez still remembers the energy of that first Mexican-Irish Festival back in 2000. Inspired by the idea of celebrating the interconnectedness of her community, she set out to create an event that honored both Mexican and Irish cultures.

With Mexicantown being predominantly Mexican and Corktown historically and predominantly Irish, the festival became a natural celebration of the neighborhoods’ rich cultural history.

Over two decades later, that same spirit is set to revive the vibrant festival, which was last held in 2005 before it was paused due to the construction of the Welcome Center and Mercado at the festival site.

The festival is being brought back by sisters Christina and Martina Guzman, along with professional event coordinator Angela Perez, all natives of Southwest Detroit.

“We are recreating it because my sister Martina and I love to organize cultural events for the community,” said Christina Guzman. Together, they promise a day filled with cultural fusion and community celebration on Sunday, October 13 from noon to 5pm at El Mercado in Mexicantown, 2826 Bagley St., Detroit.

A rich history revived

The festival originally began at the corner of 21st and Bagley in Mexicantown, sparked by the close-knit relationship between Mexicantown and Corktown. Rodriguez recounted its inception: “At that time, I was president of Mexicantown Community Development Corporation (MCDC) and we were hosting the Mercado every Sunday. It was all organic; we’re neighbors and we have a long history of interacting.”

Rodriguez continued, “I decided, this probably would be really fun if we can have a Mexican-Irish Festival. I approached the Gaelic League on Michigan Avenue, and they were thrilled. They said, ‘You know, that’s a great idea, let’s do it.’ We went ahead and it was a huge success.”

Rodriguez added that homage was paid to Father Clement Kern, who was the pastor of Most Holy Trinity. Though formally Monsignor, he was simply known as Father Clement Kern and he officiated many marriages between Mexican and Irish families, further blending the two communities.

When discussing the festival’s significance, Rodriguez highlighted the historical connection between the Mexican and Irish communities, dating back to the Mexican-American War, when the San Patricios, a battalion of Irish soldiers, fought alongside Mexico – a history extending beyond Southwest Detroit.

“This festival is to celebrate what brings us together, what makes our families and community strong,” Rodriguez said.

A day of festivities

The festival will kick off with a blessing of the elders by Father Herman from Most Holy Trinity Parish and Saint Anne de Detroit at noon. This will honor the late Bishop Thomas Gumbleton and Monsignor Clement Kern, to whom the festival pays homage.

This year’s event promises an array of activities blending the best of both cultures:

  • Tequila and whiskey lounge: Savor the distinct flavors of Mexican tequila and Irish whiskey while enjoying tunes from an Irish DJ.
  • Beer tent at Donovan’s: Enjoy a variety of beers with a Latin DJ and watch the Lions pre-game show on TVs.
  • Folk performances: Delight in Mexican folk dancers and Irish step dancers showcasing styles from different regions, including Ballet Folklórico by Moyocoyani Itzel and Joyas de Mexico and Irish Step Dancing by Shannon Dance Academy and Ardan Academy of Irish Dance.
  • Irish-Mexican Loteria: Join in on the fun from 2 to 4 p.m.
  • Live music: Dance to a mix of tunes from DJ Skipz, Irish bands, DJ Paddy J, Irish folk music, Mexican mariachi, and an afternoon performance by Conjunto Blindado.
  • Guided art classes: Participate in hourly art classes from 1 to 4pm with themes honoring both Irish and Latino cultures. Each class can accommodate 15 children and is free with sign-up.
  • Family fun: Bring the kids to enjoy bounce houses, face painting, crafts, art, and many other activities.
  • Coffee and food carts: Enjoy Irish and Mexican coffee, along with a variety of dishes including corn beef empanadas, corn beef egg rolls, shepherd’s pie, Irish whiskey biscuits, Irish stew with sourdough bread, flautas in a cup, pozole in a cup, tamales, champurrado, atole, Mexican hot dogs, and pan de muerto.
  • Mural display: Visitors can also check out the new mural on the north wall of the nearby Vernor Highway viaduct featuring images that tell the stories of the Southwest and Corktown neighborhoods and represent their cultural contributions to Detroit.

In the heart of the community

Two local businesses embodying this cultural blend will be at the festival: Nancy Whiskey Pub and Detroit Loves Tacos. Both establishments are owned by married couples of Mexican-Irish descent.

Gerald Stevens and Eva Reyes, co-owners of Nancy Whiskey Pub, shared their excitement: “It’s important because culturally, we’re the same. Our religion, the way we treat our families…this festival highlights how similar we truly are.”

Julie Stevens of Detroit Loves Tacos reflected on the festival’s legacy. “It’s amazing they’re bringing it back. My husband [Jason] was super excited. He used to go as a kid with his grandfather who called all his grandkids ‘Irish Enchiladas’ because they are all mixed.”

A community celebration

The Mexican-Irish Festival is more than just an event. It is a celebration of the vibrant, intertwined histories and shared values that make Detroit a unique mosaic of cultures. Christina Guzman said she looks forward to the revitalized festival, describing it as “a festival for the community that we loved in our youth, and we’re recreating it to honor past leaders and mentors.”

Festival Mexicano-Irlandés regresa al suroeste de Detroit

María Elena Rodríguez todavía recuerda la energía de ese primer Festival Mexicano-Irlandés en el año 2000. Inspirada por la idea de celebrar la interconexión de su comunidad, se propuso crear un evento que honre tanto la cultura mexicana como la irlandesa.

Con Mexicantown siendo predominantemente mexicano y Corktown históricamente y predominantemente irlandés, el festival se convirtió en una celebración natural de la rica historia cultural de la comunidad.

Más de dos décadas después, ese mismo espíritu está listo para revivir el vibrante festival, que se celebró por última vez en 2005 antes de ser pausado debido a la construcción del Welcome Center y el Mercado en el sitio del festival.

El festival está siendo retomado por las hermanas Christina y Martina Guzmán, junto con la coordinadora profesional de eventos Ángela Pérez, todas nativas del suroeste de Detroit.

“Lo estamos recreando porque a mi hermana Martina y a mí nos encanta organizar eventos culturales para la comunidad”, dijo Christina Guzmán. Juntas, prometen un día lleno de fusión cultural y celebración comunitaria el domingo 13 de octubre de mediodía a 5pm en El Mercado ubicado en 2826 Bagley St, Detroit.

El festival originalmente comenzó en la esquina de la calle 21 y Bagley en Mexicantown, inspirado por la estrecha relación entre Mexicantown y Corktown. Rodríguez recordó su inicio: “En ese momento, yo era presidenta del Mexicantown Community Development Corporation (MCDC) y organizábamos el mercado todos los domingos. Era todo orgánico; somos vecinos y tenemos una larga historia de interacción”.

Rodríguez continuó, “Decidí que probablemente sería muy divertido si pudiéramos tener un Festival Mexicano-Irlandés. Me acerqué a la Liga Gaélica en Avenida Michigan, y estaban encantados. Dijeron, ‘Sabes, es una gran idea, hagámoslo.’ Seguimos adelante y fue un gran éxito”.

Rodríguez agregó que se rindió homenaje al Padre Clement Kern, quien fue el pastor de Most Holy Trinity. Aunque formalmente era Monseñor, simplemente se le conocía como Padre Clement Kern y ofició muchos matrimonios entre familias mexicanas e irlandesas, uniendo aún más las dos comunidades.

Al hablar sobre la importancia del festival, Rodríguez destacó la conexión histórica entre las comunidades mexicana e irlandesa, que se remonta a la Guerra Mexicano-Estadounidense, cuando los San Patricios, un batallón de soldados irlandeses, lucharon junto a México, una historia que va más allá del suroeste de Detroit.

“Este festival es para celebrar lo que nos une, lo que hace que nuestras familias y nuestra comunidad sean fuertes”, dijo Rodríguez.

Un día de festividades

El festival comenzará con una bendición a cargo del Padre Herman de la parroquia Most Holy Trinity y Ste. Anne de Detroit al mediodía. Esto honrará al fallecido Obispo Thomas Gumbleton y al Monseñor Clement Kern, a quienes el festival rinde homenaje.

El evento de este año promete una variedad de actividades que combinan lo mejor de ambas culturas:

  • Lounge de tequila y whiskey: Saborea los sabores distintivos del tequila mexicano y el whiskey irlandés mientras disfrutas de la música de un DJ irlandés.
  • Carpa de cerveza en Donovan’s: Disfruta de una variedad de cervezas con un DJ latino y ve el programa previo del partido de los Lions en televisores.
  • Actuaciones folclóricas: Disfruta de bailarines folclóricos mexicanos y bailarines de paso irlandeses que muestran estilos de diferentes regiones, incluyendo Ballet Folklórico de Moyocoyani Itzel y Joyas de México, y danza irlandesa de Shannon Dance Academy y Ardan Academy of Irish Dance.
  • Lotería Irlandesa-Mexicana: Únete a la diversión de 2 a 4 p.m.
  • Música en vivo: Baila al ritmo de una mezcla de canciones de DJ Skipz, bandas irlandesas, DJ Paddy J, música folclórica irlandesa, mariachi mexicano y una actuación por la tarde de Conjunto Blindado.
  • Clases de arte guiadas: Participa en clases de arte cada hora de 1 a 4 p.m. con temas que honran tanto las culturas irlandesa como mexicana. Cada clase puede recibir a 15 niños y es gratuita con inscripción.
  • Diversión familiar: Trae a los niños para que disfruten de casas inflables, pinturas faciales, manualidades, arte y muchas otras actividades.
  • Carritos de café y comida: Disfruta de café irlandés y mexicano, junto con una variedad de platillos que incluyen empanadas de carne, rollos de huevo con carne, pie irlandes, galletas de whiskey irlandés, estofado irlandés con pan de masa madre, flautas, pozole, tamales, champurrado, atole, hot dogs mexicanos y pan de muerto.
  • Exhibición del mural: Los visitantes también podrán ver el nuevo mural en la pared norte del cercano viaducto de la carretera Vernor, que presenta imágenes que cuentan las historias de los vecindarios del suroeste de Detroit, y que representan las contribuciones culturales a la ciudad.

En el corazón de la comunidad

Dos negocios locales que encarnan esta mezcla cultural estarán en el festival: Nancy Whiskey Pub y Detroit Loves Tacos. Ambos establecimientos son propiedad de parejas casadas de ascendencia mexicano-irlandesa.

Gerald Stevens y Eva Reyes, co-propietarios de Nancy Whiskey Pub, compartieron su entusiasmo: “Es importante porque culturalmente, somos iguales. Nuestra religión, la forma en que tratamos a nuestras familias… este festival destaca lo similares que realmente somos”.

Julie Stevens de Detroit Loves Tacos reflexionó sobre el legado del festival. “Es increíble lo que están retomando. Mi esposo [Jason] estaba súper emocionado. Solía ir cuando era niño con su abuelo, quien llamaba a todos sus nietos ‘Enchiladas Irlandesas’ porque todos son una mezcla”.

Una celebración comunitaria

El Festival Mexicano-Irlandés es más que solo un evento. Es una celebración de las vibrantes historias interconectadas y los valores compartidos que hacen de Detroit un mosaico único de culturas.

Christina Guzmán dijo que espera el festival con ansias, describiéndolo como “un festival para la comunidad que amamos en nuestra juventud, y lo estamos recreando para honrar a los líderes y mentores del pasado.”
