Founded in 1983, the Mermaid Parade is the nation's largest art parade and one of New York City's greatest summer events.
The Mermaid Parade pays homage to Coney Island's forgotten Mardi Gras which lasted from 1903 to 1954, and draws from a host of other sources resulting in a wonderful and wacky event that is unique to Brooklyn's Coney Island.
