I hear this year's Bronx Day celebration includes Bronx Walk of Fame inductees like Adam Rodriguez of CSI, Rock Steady Crew, Grand Master CAZ, A doctor (M.D) and others - Does anyone have non-copyright pics of Bronx Day to share? -

For the Dominican Day Parade, what are the highlights, main "attractions" etc? Any personal accounts? If you've been to both can you compare &/or contrast with other parades?

Are you referring to the Bronx DR parade or the one in Manhattan?

I've never been to the one in the Bronx, but the Manhattan one is just your typical ethnic parade. Think the PR parade but on a smaller scale. The crowds kinda make the ambiance, so it basically depends on who you go with.

I was part of the Manhattan parade in 2006. I was with the political group PLD waving flags. The parade gets PACKED. Millions of Dominicans yelling and waving their flags. The parade features have Merengue artists like Omega and Krisspy and Bachateros such as Aventura and El Chaval. You have radio personalities from La Mega and La Kalle aswell. Sometimes special appearances from the Dominican rappers such as El Lapiz and Vakero. But I have vague memories of the Manhattan one...morse so of the Bronx one. The only problem is the annual gang fights between the Trinitarios and DDP.

Here our some photos I took of the 2007 Dominican Bronx Parade:
