New day…Nowruz. The Persian Parade!
Nowruz, the Persian (Iranian) New Year, translates to ‘new day’ and starts at the Spring Equinox. Nowruz is a joyous celebration of renewal and rebirth that blossoms at the start of Spring. Just when the flowers awaken and the trees come to life, the Nowruz Festival kicks off in New York City with the Persian Parade.
The Persian Parade is a celebration open to all who want to welcome a new year, celebrate the rich culture of Iran and enjoy the delights of a culture that spans centuries. The Persian Parade Foundation is a 501c3 nonprofit organization (EIN #20-1997943).
