Brooklyn To Host Puerto Rican Day Parade This Sunday

June 10, 2022

Wepa!

It’s that time of year as this Sunday New York City will be hosting their annual Puerto Rican Day parade in Manhattan as is tradition, but the festivities will continue in Brooklyn as Bushwick is set to host their own mini-parade for the boricuas who call the big apple home.

Bushwick Daily is reporting that at 3pm this Sunday, Knickerbocker Avenue will be the place to be as the festivities will continue in a neighborhood that was once prominently Puerto Rican before gentrification hit and turned a once Hip-Hop neighborhood into an extension of the Greenwich Village in Manhattan. That being said, this year’s theme for the parade in Bushwick will be an interesting one as it hits close to home.

Hipsters might feel a ways about that but this was our hood first, kick rocks.
