54th Annual Chicano Park Day 2024.
Song By: Los Alacranes "Chicano Park." RIP Ramon “Chunky” 2016.
Chicano Park Day is an annual event held in San Diego, California to celebrate the rich history and cultural heritage of the Chicano community in the Barrio Logan neighborhood. The event takes place on the third Saturday of April each year and features music, dance performances, food, and various cultural activities.
Chicano Park itself has a rich history dating back to the 1960s, when community activists fought against the construction of a highway through the Barrio Logan neighborhood. Despite their efforts, the highway was built and the community was left with a barren lot underneath the Coronado Bridge.
In 1970, community members organized a peaceful protest and took over the lot, demanding that it be turned into a park for the community. The park was officially recognized by the city in 1980, and has since become a symbol of Chicano pride and cultural identity.
Chicano Park Day is a way for the community to come together and celebrate the park's history and cultural significance. The event features performances by traditional Aztec dancers, local musicians, and other artists, as well as traditional Mexican food and craft vendors. Visitors can also learn about the history of the park through various exhibits and presentations.
Overall, Chicano Park Day is a celebration of community, culture, and resistance, honoring the struggles and triumphs of the Chicano community in San Diego and beyond.
