The summer season continues, and so does parade season, with the subsequent one proper across the nook.
Sixth Avenue will probably be ablaze with the colours of the Dominican flag because the forty fourth annual New York Metropolis Dominican Day Parade returns this Sunday, August 9. Beginning at 11 a.m., the occasion will deliver the enjoyment of Quisqueya to the Avenue of the Americas.
This yr’s theme is “Id and Tradition,” and several other outstanding Dominican figures will probably be acknowledged. Among the many parade’s stars are Shino Aguakate and Lizbel Ortiz, and the parade king will probably be media character and radio host Frederick Martínez (“El Pachá”). This yr’s Grand Marshal will probably be Dr. Ramón Tallaj of SOMOS Neighborhood Care, and a legacy award will probably be introduced to Goya Meals.
The parade will happen on Sunday, August 9, beginning at 11 a.m. The parade will happen alongside Sixth Avenue, from thirty seventh Road to fifty fifth Road.
Telemundo 47 and NBC New York will take part within the occasion with their very own float. We will probably be broadcasting the parade on all our digital platforms and on this web page beginning at 11 a.m.
