April Fools' Day Parade jester

The New York April Fools’ Committee is Proud to Announce:

New York City’s 30th Annual

April Fools’ Day Parade!

“Hands Up, Don’t Shoot!”

We’re 30 and proud of it! New York’s spectacular April Fools’ Day Parade kicks into its fourth decade of hilarious irreverence, poking fun at the past year’s public displays of hype, hypocrisy, deceit, bigotry, and downright foolishness. Nothing and no one is sacred. Our satire knows no bounds. In honor of our 30th year, we’ll be giving 30 lucky revelers free cartoon interpretations of their favorite taboo religious icons, picked at random at the end of the parade in Washington Square Park.
