Haitian Cultural Night at the Boston Red Sox

May 24 @ 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM EDT

Join the Boston Red Sox, Boston City Council President Ruthzee Louijeune, and Haitian Americans United in celebrating Haitian Heritage Month at Fenway Park on Friday, May 24th! Show your Haitian pride and support as we honor the rich history, culture, and contributions of the Haitian-American community.

Did you know that Haiti is the first free Black republic in the world, the first independent state in the Caribbean, the second independent state in the Western Hemisphere after the United States, and the only country founded from a slave revolt? Boston is proud to be home to the third-largest population of Haitian immigrants in the nation. The Haitian community contributions mightily to the economic prosperity of our city in the healthcare field, our schools, transportation, and so many other areas.

Ticket holders who purchase tickets through this special offer will receive a Red Sox Haitian Celebration jersey, available in sizes Adult Small to XL on a first-come, first-served basis. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to represent your heritage!

As May is recognized as Haitian Heritage Month, culminating with the celebration of Haitian Flag Day on May 18th, the jerseys for purchase will proudly feature the iconic colors and symbol of the Haitian flag, serving as a symbol of unity and pride for the Haitian-American community.

Arrive early to enjoy vibrant cultural performances that showcase the diversity and spirit of Haiti. In addition to the exciting festivities, delicious Haitian food will also be available. Let’s come together to celebrate and honor the legacy of Haitian-Americans at Fenway Park!
