The first Sunday in May, people of all ages wind their way toward South Minneapolis and start lining up along Bloomington Avenue, between 25th and 34th Streets, congregating near Powderhorn Park. Organized by In The Heart Of The Beast Puppet Theatre, the Mayday festival has been going for more than 30 years now and has a different theme each year, always featuring many world-class giant puppets, bands, dancers, cyclists, dancing stiltwalkers, fantastically costumed creative types, and many smiling community members. The best view of the parade is generally along Bloomington, just follow those paraders to where the route ends at Powderhorn Park. There you’ll find healthy concessions and a performance til dusk with hillside lawn seating.
