Tens of thousands flooded Fifth Avenue for the dazzling National Puerto Rican Day Parade, a vibrant cultural powerhouse since the late 50s. Daddy Yankee led as grand marshal, while Hamilton’s Anthony Ramos and Mayor Zohran Mamdani joined the celebration. Spanning 35 blocks, it’s America’s largest cultural event honoring Puerto Rican heritage and impact. Lifetime honors went to jazz legend Charlie Sepulveda and Congresswoman Nydia Velázquez, and the festivities kicked off with a scholarship gala spotlighting academic excellence — a dazzling, unifying tribute to pride and legacy.
