Arajet and Miami Marlins celebrate Dominican Heritage Day in Miami
Arajet joined the Miami Marlins and the Dominican Republic Ministry of Tourism to mark Dominican Heritage Day at LoanDepot Park in Miami. The event took place during the Marlins’ game against the Washington Nationals and celebrated the culture, traditions and national pride of the Dominican community in South Florida. Activities began at West Plaza, where live music and Dominican dancers welcomed fans before the game. The programme also included a Dominican Heritage Parade on the field, Dominican food, family activities and other cultural entertainment across the stadium. Arajet and the Ministry of Tourism supported interactive experiences, fan engagement activities and opportunities for attendees to win trips to the Dominican Republic. The celebration ended after the game with a performance by Dominican merengue artist Toño Rosario. Arajet’s chief communications officer, Manuel Luna, said the airline’s involvement reflects its commitment to strengthening ties with the Dominican diaspora in South Florida. He also noted that Miami is Arajet’s second-largest US route by passenger volume, highlighting the connection between the city and the Dominican Republic. For Naranja, the news is relevant because it shows how travel, tourism and cultural organisations can engage diaspora communities through major sporting events. It also underlines Miami’s importance as a link between the Dominican Republic and audiences in South Florida.
