On Friday, September 10, at 12:00 noon pride will light up the face of every Ethiopian and Ethiopian American who comes to celebrate the six annual Ethiopian flag raising ceremony in San Jose.
The Annual Ethiopian Flag raising Festival is a celebratory event that gives Ethiopians, Ethiopian Americans, friends, and supporters the chance to come together not only to celebrate the New Year of Ethiopia, but also to stir the patriotism within the hearts of Ethiopians, so we will never forget our roots, even when we are far away from country. Please join the San Jose City Mayor, Vice Mayor, City Council members at the unprecedented flag raising ceremony where the Ethiopia flag will fly over in the heart of the Silicon Valley.
This special civic ceremony is an excellent exercise to keep our tradition and respect for the homeland alive in the soul of every Ethiopian. So invite friends and family, dress in green yellow and red and come celebrate with us!
San Jose is the first and the only city in the entire United States of America officially hosting the Ethiopian flag.
