Flushing Lunar New Year Parade

This annual jaunt travels through Queens’ Chinatown, which rivals Manhattan’s in population, and whose Lunar New Year parade is actually three years older than the similar event in that other borough. Check out traditional Chinese performances, like the dragon dance, with many performers in a long dragon costume mimicking the mythical creature’s movements. Parade begins at Union St and 39th Ave and ends at Main St and 39th Ave. All ages.
