WATCH: 70,000 strong, Jamaica’s New York parade set to rise higher for 65th

The inaugural staging of the Jamaican Rising Day Parade in New York was a resounding success, attracting an estimated 70,000 people last August.

Buoyed by the positive response, organisers have their sights set on an even bigger and better celebration for Jamaica’s 65th independence anniversary in 2027.

Jamaica Observer digital editor Julian Richardson caught up with Dr Lawman Lynch, co-founder of the Jamaican Rising Day Parade, to discuss the plans.
