Do the banks work on May 5, 2022?

Although a relevant historical event is commemorated, banks in Mexico work normally on this date. The only day in May that they do not work officially is the 1st; however, this year it coincided with Sunday, a day they do not operate.

The next day without work, contemplated in the 2022 calendar of the Association of Mexican Banks (ABM), is September 16, on the occasion of the celebrations of the Independence of Mexico.

What is commemorated on May 5?

Mexico is celebrated on the day of the Battle of Puebla, an event in which the Mexican army defeated the French. On May 5, 1862, the Army of the East, commanded by the young General Ignacio Zaragoza, defeated the invading troops of Napoleon III.

The celebration has spread to the United States, where some groups take the opportunity to make parades and concerts in which they celebrate their Mexican origin with typical food and mariachis.
