Coney Island Mermaid Parade
The Mermaid Parade returns with its annual zany celebration of mermaids, mermen and other feather-and-sequin-clad creatures of the deep. Local art scene icons Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson are this year’s king and queen: Go for the spectacle, stay for the clams and Nathan’s Famous (and the post-parade Mermaid Ball).

Parade begins at West 21st Street and Surf Avenue

New York Brewfest
The fourth annual Brewfest convenes on Governor’s Island to celebrate craft beer from regional, national and international brewers. You’ll also find food, live bands and seminars featuring tastings.
