On the morning of June 4, the parade was held along the 38th - 27th streets of Madison Avenue in Manhattan. But before getting on their float, our queens showed that they got some good humor too.
Our queens looked chic, classy and sophisticated in their Piña suits made by Cherry Veric.

| Beauty with a purpose. |
 |
| Confidently beautiful with a heart. |
 |
| Culture, education and international understanding. |
 |
| Squeezed in for a powerful groufie. |

The parade ended peacefully and was followed by a cultural show with guest performers Mikey Bustos, American Idol runner-up Jessica Sanchez, and other talented Pinoys based in New York.
Mabuhay ang Gandang Pinay! Mabuhay ang lahing Pilipino!
