to their line-up position. Once placed, they must check in with the registration on 21st &

PARADE STARTING LINE:
21st St and Broadway. Dancers and vehicles will be integrated (“zippered”) at this point.
PARADE ROUTE:
Parade Route proceeds south on Broadway to Union Square, through Union Square West,
continuing south to University Place. There is one block of cobblestone between 14th & 15th
streets, watch your step. The Parade will then turn east on Eighth Street, which becomes Saint
Marks Place and leads straight to Tompkins Square Park.
It will take your group between 1.5-2 hours to get through the whole parade route
This year we have our GRANDSTAND at University Place and 8
th
street at the elbow of the
parade. Although we will not be judging groups, spectators will include city officials and other
Dance Parade VIPs. Tickets may be purchased from a link on our homepage at
www.danceparade.org
Groups with choreography
are invited to perform for a 40 second spot in front of the
grandstand. There are expecting only a small percentage of the groups to perform here, as we
cannot hold up the parade. We are dancers and we must MOVE People (if not, you will be
ticketed by the Dance Police and sent to Dance Court).
SPECIAL PHOTO AT 21st FORMATION:
At 12:15pm we will take a group photo of the sea of dancers who are in formation at 21st
Street. The photographer will be on a 10 foot ladder on 21st closer to Park Ave facing west.
If everyone can give him attention for about 10 minutes as he directs the dancers to strike a
dance move on the count of 3.
PARADE END:
Groups dance straight into the Park from Saint Marks Place, entering from Avenue A (west
side of the park) and continue promenading through the park clockwise until they reach the
bandshell (A Stage). At this point all
vehicles must turn off their sound as soon as they
th
th
get to Avenue A
. Vehicles will turn north on Avenue A and stop between 11
& 12
Street
for vehicle breakdown (if needed). 10th Street is a two way street and either side of 10th
Street can be used for parking. Dancers riding on floats will disembark at Avenue A between
th
th
11
& 12
street.
GRANDSTAND:
All groups are given the option of performing a 40 second choreographed piece in front of the
Grandstand at University Place and 8th Street (where the Parade turns left heading to
Tompkins Square Park).
If
you DO have
a 40 second (or less) choreographed piece please enter the area in front of
the Grandstand perform it and then promptly continue on the Parade route. It will be timed
and you are expected to comply with this.
If
you DO NOT have
a 40 second choreographed piece please move quickly through the
Grandstand area waving at the spectators in the Grandstand or performing as you Parade
through the area.
RAIN PREPARATION GUIDE
We need to pray to the sun god and prepare for rain because there is a chance of rain on
Saturday so we are gearing up and getting excited to dance in the rain! This is a
rain or
shine event
so no matter what the weather decides to do we will be dancing down Broadway!
We have prepared some things to prepare in case of rain.
● Protect your sound equipment!
Make sure you have extra water proof tarps to put over speakers and wiring
that is exposed to the outside. You can buy tarps at any hardware store or use
heavy duty trash bags along with some duct tape to keep it down. Don’t forget
to protect the cables by keeping them off the ground and under tarps or trash
bags.
● Protect your electronics!
Put your phones and any personal electronics in some kind of waterproof bag or
container. You can also have some of your group members carry the electronics
down the parade route walking (I mean dancing) with an umbrella.
● Please Be Patient.
In the rain things can get be delayed and accidents can happen, so please allow
more time to get where you need to go. Vehicles, be extra cautious of those
around you, it will be slippery and crowded so better to be slow than rush to get
where you need to go.
● Have fun!!
There’s something really magical that happens when you can dance in the rain
and when we’re not worried about anything getting ruined we can free
ourselves to just be wet and dancing. But after we make sure everything is
waterproofed.
● FLOATS
:
Floats must arrange protective tarps to protect DJ’s equipment. If you have
ordered a float with sound through Dance Parade we will take care of the
waterproofing. Just work about waterproofing yourself and bring umbrellas. AFTERPARTY:
Everyone is welcome to join us at the after party with m
usical stylings by

BLOCK NUMBER:
Each Dance Group Coordinator is given a sticker with a letter-number combination, with A - 1
being the first group in the parade, and A - 2 being the second group in the parade, etc.
Each section will be divided into BLOCKS: BLOCK A, BLOCK B, BLOCK C, BLOCK D, BLOCK E,
BLOCK F and BLOCK G.
Individuals from Blocks A-C & E-G will line up on 21st Street between Park Ave and Broadway.
22nd Street is reserved for vehicles and floats.
BLOCK “D” is an exception, In BLOCK D all Floats, buses and dancers will line up together.
Only those involved in the actual construction and set-up of the float will be allowed
on 22nd Street.
AT FORMATION AREA:
Individual Dancers and Dance Groups will be responsible for lining up in the correct order
based on their Parade Order # on 21Street. The
DANCER ORDER CAPTAINS
will be helping
th
these groups and dancers line-up in the correct order and will have the parade order on hand
for reference. There will be staff on both the dancer and vehicle streets to help you find your
place in the line of march.
Groups with vehicles will be assisted in the line up in the correct order based on their Parade
Order # on 22Street. Keep in mind that some numbers might be skipped, not all groups have
vehicles. The
VEHICLE ORDER CAPTAIN
helps place vehicles in the correct order once they
arrive at the line-up area and will have the parade order on hand for reference. This will be a
secure area--Only people with wristbands can enter.
There is to be NO AMPLIFIED sound in the formation blocks, other than sound
checks.
nd
The Parade will start when the
PARADE START CAPTAIN
signals for the first groups to cross
21
and Broadway. The captain guides the merging of groups and vehicles at the start of the
parade and signals for the correct vehicles and dancers to enter the parade based on the
official Parade Order.
st
ON THE PARADE ROUTE
SPACERS:
SPACERS are perhaps the most important of all Volunteer Staff; they keep the pace of the
parade and are integral to your success on the route. Spacers will be interacting with dance
groups closely as they maintain the distance between groups and the timing of the Parade.
DANCING ON THE ROUTE:
The crowd expects a show – let’s give them one! If you are unsure of what to do or feel
uncomfortable improvising, create three or four repeatable rhythmic phrases that a group
leader can begin and the rest of the group can pick up. Change the phrase every five blocks,
or whenever the parade stops.
You may also perform “routines” along the route. Stationary routines may ONLY be performed
BEFORE you reach an intersection – please do not perform in the middle of a block or
intersection.
VEHICLES AND FLOATS:
Dancers must remain on floats at all times. Spacers will assist with maintaining the safety of
dancers on the ground.
No items may be thrown off floats; please hand anything directly to spectators.
NEW YORK
DANCE POLICE:
We also have volunteer NYDP (New York Dance Police) officers keeping the
viewers of the Parade dancing and enthusiastic! NYDP will hand out tickets to viewers of the
Parade who are not dancing. NYDP might also sentence viewers to mandatory free dance
lessons at the DanceFest in Tompkins Square Park!
NEW YORK DANCE POLICE:
Our event is a favorite with the NY Police Department – let’s help to keep it that way! Your full
cooperation with both the NYPD and parade staff is greatly appreciated. Please quickly and
respectfully follow any directive they may have.
In the event of an emergency, please notify the nearest NYPD officer or parade production
team member.
DANCE FEST
The Parade will end at Tompkins Square Park, where the post-parade DanceFest will take
place, complete with a DJ'ed dance party, a teaching area with dance classes, “Experience
Dance” booths, site specific performances and dance performances on two stages.
The performance times indicated below represent the final assignments per the curation
committee. Groups are expected to check in with the stage manager 30 minutes prior to their
scheduled time on stage. Please be aware that the schedule may fluctuate slightly due to
unforeseen circumstances.
Groups need to bring their music to the stage manager
when they check in.
We suggest both an mp3 accessible file (Ipod, mp3 player, flash drive,
etc) as well as on a CD as a back-up.

THINGS TO REMEMBER
●
Costumes! Remember, parades are spectacles – let’s give the audience a show! However,
please remember that this is an all-inclusive, family-friendly event and we want to highlight
ourselves and our love of dance in the most positive ways. If you are not wearing your
costume to the parade consider how you will change into it.
●
Weather contingencies: The forecast is Partly Cloudy and 67degrees. Wear sunscreen, head
covering, towels to wipe that sweat off, plastic poncho, etc.
●
Comfortable shoes. You will more than likely be on your feet dancing the entire day. Get
ready!
●
Water (and something to carry it in if you want your hands free).
●
A banner to lead your group and/or your group’s promotional materials. Although you
cannot display your items unless you sponsor an “Experience Dance” booth, you are welcome
to hand out your literature along the route
●
Something/someone to manage your group’s belongings (if they can’t be locked into a car
or stored on a float) as you travel on the route
●
The formation area will have two bathrooms and so will the park.
●
Most of the businesses in the area open at 10AM. Please be respectful of
their livelihoods by remaining in the formation areas.
●
The parade is about celebrating diversity and inclusion, and experiencing discoveries as a
community. We encourage you to share your work and message with others and take full
advantage of the resources that so many talented and dedicated dancers bring together for
one magical day!
