West Indian Day Parade Now

Head over to Brooklyn for the West Indian Day Carnival and Parade on Eastern Parkway. The parade started 11AM, but festivities will continue until 6PM. Dancers with gorgeous costumes and wild floats will be out in full force, as well as Caribbean cooking. Plus, except to see a lot of local politicians gearing up for next week's primary.

More from Newsday. And Gothamist on last year's parade.
