This match marks the expansion of Haitian Cultural Night into the world of soccer — Haiti’s most beloved sport, foutbòl. Through this collaboration, the Haitian Cultural Night Committee and the New England Revolution are intentionally creating an entertainment space that embodies the passion, pride, rhythm, and unity that soccer represents across Haiti and the Haitian diaspora.

In Haiti, soccer is more than a game — it is identity, resilience, and community. This inaugural partnership reflects our shared commitment to celebrating Haitian excellence while creating a culturally rooted experience inside one of New England’s premier sports environments. Fans can expect vibrant pre-game activations, live performances, music, giveaways, and community-centered programming that honor the spirit of “ti moun Dessalines” — everyday Haitians who continue to build, uplift, and lead with courage.

  • At-Large Boston City Councilor Ruthzee Louijeune
