You may have seen the police barricades in place along St. Mark's Place and parts of Tompkins Square Park... all ahead of the 12th annual Dance Parade and DanceFest.
The Parade kicks off at 1 p.m. at 21st and Broadway, and heads down to Eighth Street/St. Mark's Place ... and eventually into Tompkins Square Park for the DanceFest...
Organizers say that 10,000 (or so) dancers from 150-plus organizations will be taking part in the parade. This year's theme: "The Cabaret of Life," which celebrates the repeal of NYC's 1926 Cabaret Law last fall.
Here's the official website with more info.
And in case you were wondering if the whole thing will be called off because of the rainy forecast... No!
Rain or Shine we are dancing on Saturday, May 19th!

Dance parade in the rain? In the heavy, heavy rain? Yup, count me in. Anything other than a "royal" wedding.
