Better Chinatown USA is organizing this historic midtown parade. The event has special support from the New York Mayor’s Office, the Community Service Unit CAU, NYPD, and the Special Permits Office.

We will partner with various Asian Pacific ethnic groups to celebrate the Asian-Pacific Heritage Month in May. Please join us on May 15th on 6th Ave!

Thanks for coming out to celebrate the start of the Lunar New Year! The firecrackers went off with a bang and we had a huge crowd joining us for the festivities!
