It's the final Sunday of the Colorado State Fair and that means it's Fiesta Day.

This morning, to celebrate, a parade took over Northern Avenue in Pueblo!

People come from all over the state to celebrate this special day at the fair.

From Mexican food to decorations, it's all about celebrating Hispanic culture.

"A lot of music, and that's of course a heritage," said Margaret Grasmick, a Rocky Ford resident who came to Pueblo to enjoy the parade. "Music and Mexicans go hand in hand, and I think the parade makes marching bands so exciting. The kids are a part of it, so it's nice."

Fiesta Day is in its 46th year with the fair, and those at the parade said they look forward to it every year.
