Every US Labor Day, the West Indian Day Parade brings a buzzing energy to Brooklyn, New York, celebrating Caribbean culture and heritage. The event – drawing a crowd of almost two million – begins with pre-parade parties, and features costumed dancers giving it their all to steel-pan and calypso bands, while tasty island cuisine is sold along the carnival route.
