A Vibrant Celebration of Music, Culture, and Authentic Food! 🇩🇴 🎟️ Admission: Completely free. Experience the Dominican Republic's cultural foods, music, and more! Come out and enjoy one of the city's biggest and most energetic summer festivals. Get immersed into this cultural wonderland with international and local music, artists, and carnival rides! 🕐 Timing: Parade runs 11:00 AM–9 PM, starting at 131 Columbus ave, rolling down Centre Street in Jamaica Plain, and ending at Franklin Park Zoo's Main Entrance. 📍 Meeting Spot: Stash's Pizza — same gathering spot as the P.R. festival, to watch the parade come through. I will NOT be attending this one, but the meeting spot still stands if you would like to gather there. Main Festival is located at Franklin Park Playstead (1 Franklin Park Road, Boston, MA 02121), 11 AM–9 PM... I am NOT going to this event. Quick note: this festival draws a huge crowd, so please plan accordingly! Check out the authentic food kiosks: Tons of vendors serving up traditional favorites like mangú, sancocho, tostones, pastelitos, and more! 🇩🇴 ✽✦✽.◦.✽✦✽🇩🇴✽✦✽.◦.✽✦✽🇩🇴 ️ Feeling generous?
