2016 Puerto Rican Day Parade
Sunday, September 25th, 2016
Benjamin Franklin Parkway
Grand Stand will be at Logan Square
Featuring Grand Marshal:
Professional Boxer and North Philadelphia Native Danny Garcia

We are thrilled to extend an invitation to the community so that you may have the opportunity to be a part of this vibrant event, which has been woven into the Philadelphia fabric for many years. This is a great opportunity to have your group on display for all to see as we celebrate the wonderful culture and history of Puerto Rico and its decedents.

This year’s theme will be: “The Power of Our Voice/El Poder de Nuestra Voz”

This year we celebrate the power of the Puerto Rican Voice! We advocate for the need to support Puerto Ricans on the island who are impacted by the Fiscal and Economic Crisis in Puerto Rico. We also recognize the many adversities Puerto Ricans in the United States face each day. We have a voice, and we have an opportunity to stand up and ensure we continue to have a vibrant and strong Latino community today and in the future generations to come.
