Lag B’Omer, Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai’s yahrzeit which falls on a Sunday this year, will be celebrated with a large event on Brooklyn’s main thoroughfare Eastern Parkway.
It will feature the innovation and musical twist of some of the greatest jewish entertainers and singers – Mordechai Ben David, Avraham Fried, Lipa Schmeltzer, and Uncle Moishe.
Organizers from Tzivos Hashem and NCFJE are said to expect a crowd of tens of thousands.
The May 2, 2010 celebration, instituted by the Rebbe, will begin 10:15 AM with a rally and concert at Eastern Parkway, between Kingston Avenue and Brooklyn Avenue.
After the rally, at 11:30 AM, the central parade will pass by Lubavitch Headquarters 770 Eastern Parkway, in the grand tradition of a Lag Baomer Parade.
It will be composed of all the classic favorites including marching bands, military parades as well as the stars of the show – the Jewish boys and girls.
The parade will be followed by a family fair with rides and games on Kingston Avenue and Rutland Road.
Two Uncle Moshe Concerts will be held at the George Wingate High School Auditorium.

You guys rock the house baby let get the Party Start it man oh yeah but why do we need Uncle Moshe ? I think you should get Chaim Foglman

The Rebbe once was against turing the parade into a “concert” I think he said, will not come out as this is NOT a concert (They wanted to invite M. Bendavid or another singer).
Try to get this cleared before investing so much efforts. YG@SP
