Welcome bienvenidos

Every year, the NPRDP hosts a series of public events leading up to the culmination of the Parade on the second Sunday of June.  Our events and programs are designed to celebrate and advance Art, Culture and Education in the Puerto Rican community, both in Puerto Rico and the mainland U.S.

Mark your calendars, you do not want to miss any of the celebrations!  Come back regularly for an update on other events scheduled during the two weeks leading up to the parade.

    Frequently Asked Questions preguntas frecuentes
    What is a parade/marching contingent?

     A parade/marching contingent is an organized group of 50 people or less representing a registered organization. All contingents must file a parade application. The NPRDP will provide permits and access wristbands upon completion of the registration process. No contingent will be permitted to march without the applicable permits and wristbands.

    Does my organization need to register? Can we join another organization that is registered?

    All organizations must file parade applications, separately. Parade formation permits cannot be shared.

    Can I march in the parade without being part of a registered contingent?

    No. For security purposes, required by the NYPD, we must have the ability to identify all marchers and their respective contingents.

    How can I get the most up-to-date information about events?

    Come back to the website regularly and follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
