The Easter Parade and Easter Bonnet Festival

The Easter Parade and Easter Bonnet Festival is not exactly an organized event. On Easter Sunday, 5th Avenu closes for transport, and the fun begins. The participants wear weird, funny, inventive costumes and wander around the street.

This New York City tradition kicks off at 49th Street near St. Patrick's Cathedral and travels up Fifth Avenue to 55th Street. Be sure to wear your Sunday best!
