On the Avenue: Salty Dog Hosts Norwegian Day Parade Benefit
Fresh off the triumphant return of the Bay Ridge St. Patrick’s Day Parade, which saw huge crowds gather “on the avenue” in celebration of all things Irish, another cultural tradition is set to return on May 15.
The Norwegian Constitution Day Parade — a neighborhood tradition since 1952 — will be stepping off from 80th Street along Third Avenue to Bay Ridge Avenue, then up to Fifth Avenue and over to the reviewing stand in Leif Ericson Park.
The parade theme will be “Honoring Essential Workers.”
