The neighborhood-wide celebration — hosted by Loisaida United Neighborhood Gardens (LUNGS) — kicks off at noon with a parade starting at El Sol Brillante (522 E. 12th St. between Avenue A and Avenue B). The procession heads east on 12th Street, loops down Avenue C, and makes its way through Tompkins Square Park before exiting at Ninth Street and Avenue B.
Avenue B will be closed between Seventh Street and 10th Street with events as part of the Open Streets program.
In addition, you can check out some live music at DeColores Community Yard (311 E. Eighth St. between Avenue B and Avenue C) from 2-6 p.m. Details here.

Pony rides? Really? Animals should not be beasts of burden for children’s entertainment. Free the ponies.
I wish the garden community would reconsider pony rides.
Agree that pony rides are no good. Suggest they substitute ostrich rides instead.
Your articulate, well informed remark is cruel. Any child riding an Ostrich would be thrown off within seconds.
Ponies should only be used to plow the land and ostriches are only purpose is being eaten.
