Los Hermanos Familia welcomed about 110 floats and participants (triple since 2014), and drew a crowd of almost 7,000 on historic Broadway! This promotes cultural awareness, art, and engages the community.

The 2023 theme: “!Somos la Fuerza de Nuestra Comunidad – We are the Strength of our community!” – Let’s put the UNITY in commUNITY! Participants are encouraged to decorate their float in rich and festive colors! And of course, urged to toss some candy to spectators! Los Hermanos Familia also encourages participants to align with “Our objective is strengthening families, and building community,” said Amaris Garcia, 2023 Parade Chair. “This year we are urging schools and organizations and families to share the richness of their existence and their history and prepare floats that are rich in color and festive. The Hispanic community encourages veterans, family members, role models, schools, athletes, marching bands, small and corporate businesses, etc. to be included.
