Co-organized with the National Puerto Rican Day Parade Committee, this year’s pre-parade celebration marks the 130th anniversary of the Puerto Rican Flag with live performances, special guest speakers, and cultural programming. As part of Historias, the event highlights the legacy and resilience of the Puerto Rican diaspora, with a special tribute to Clemente Soto Vélez—honoring his impact on cultural resistance, storytelling, and community empowerment.
