Social Dance ind the Dance Parade

With the Findyhoppers & Brooklyn Swings

Come swing it (or shake it) down the Dance Parade route with the Findyhoppers and Brooklyn Swings! Created in 2006 to protest the NY State Supreme Court ruling that upheld the 1926 Cabaret Law, which forbade social dancing because it was not considered an “expressive form of art”, this event is very near and dear to our hearts.

Many of us started dancing when the cabaret laws were still in effect, and establishments faced heavy fines or risk of shutting down if they were caught allowing *gasp* dancing to occur. The law was repealed, largely in part due to the Dance Parade’s advocacy and partnerships, and now we gather to celebrate all different kinds of dance forms and cultures!

We won’t have exact details until closer to the event but typically call time is around 11am.
Our color this year is BLUE!
What will be different this year: we will have a vehicle! Big Blue will return for Mermaid Parade but our trusty

Please register here even though you are RSVPing here: https://danceparade.org/individual-registration
It is free to do so, and required by the parade peeps.

Starting in Chelsea and ending in Thompkins Square Park.
