Join HALANY as we celebrate Haitian Heritage Month by walking together in the 7th Annual Haitian Culture Day Parade! This year’s theme, “We Belong,” is a powerful reminder of our shared history, culture, and presence in every space we enter. The parade kicks off at 10:00 AM on Saturday, May 9, 2026, starting at Nostrand Ave and Church Ave (Little Haiti/Toussaint L'Ouverture Blvd) and continuing to Flatbush Junction/Hillel Plaza. Come represent, connect, and show your pride alongside fellow members—we look forward to walking with you!

Please RSVP to confirm your participation to march with us at 10 AM. We must come out strong with a powerful presence, representing not only HALANY but the Haitian community with pride. Your presence truly matters, and we hope you’ll stand with us on this meaningful day!
