Feast of San Gennaro, 

Little Italy, United States

 
01 Sep 2010 - 30 Sep 2010 Date to be confirmed  

The annual Feast of San Gennaro is said to be New York City's oldest, biggest and best street festival. It brings more than a million people to the streets of Little Italy for the annual salute to the Patron Saint of Naples. The street festivities (including parades, entertainment, food stands and the ever-popular cannoli-eating contest) culminate with a celebratory Mass and candlelit procession as the Statue of the Saint is carried from its permanent home in Most Precious Blood Church on Mulberry Street.
