The celebration marking Liberia's 179th Independence Day is scheduled to take place in Brooklyn Park on Sunday. Organizers expect thousands of attendees to participate in the event, which serves as a continuation of the annual observance.

The location for the festivities has changed from the previous year. In July 2025, the inaugural parade was held in Brooklyn Center. This year, the main activities are moving to the neighboring city of Brooklyn Park.

The shift in venue marks the second iteration of the event. The 2025 celebration featured participants waving the Liberian flag during the parade. The current gathering is anticipated to draw a large crowd to commemorate the national holiday.

Further details regarding specific times, additional activities, or logistical arrangements for the Brooklyn Park event were not provided in the available information.
