The festival is from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. between Jackson and Tinton Avenues.
The 152nd Street Cultural Festival is the kick-off leading up to the parade on 5th Avenue.
The National Puerto Rican Day Parade's theme Un Pueblo, Muchas Voces (One Nation, Many Voices) celebrates the creativity and diversity of thought in Puerto Rico and across the diaspora.
