In Buffalo, NY Easter is the Holy Day – and Dyngus is the Party Day.

It has been 41 years since the Buffalo Chopin Singing Society put on the very first Dyngus Party party at their headquarters.  Over these past 4 decades that party has become a massive fun factory spread out all over the area involved tens of thousands of partiers.  But you might ask what in the world is Dyngus Day?   The authoritative www.dyngusdaybuffalo.com tells us:h

Dyngus Day, the annual Post-Lenten Bash, attracts thousands to Buffalo, New York to celebrate spring, show Polish Pride, flirt (with the opposite sex) with pussy willows and listen to the best Polka bands in America.

Dyngus Day always falls on the Monday after Easter.  This year it is Monday April 9th and the fun continues until Sunday April 15th.  Dyngus is becomes Buffalo’s version of the New Orleans Mardis Gras.

If you are attending this is what you will see.  If not join us in 2013…..
