Dante and Chiara de Blasio: King Neptune and Queen Mermaid at Coney Island’s 2014 Mermaid Parade
The funky, only-in-Brooklyn Mermaid Parade in Coney Island will have a new King and Queen this year.
Coney Island USA has announced that Dante and Chiara de Blasio have been appointed as King Neptune and Queen Mermaid in the 32nd Annual Mermaid Parade on Saturday, June 21.
According to tradition, King Neptune and Queen Mermaid will be wheeled in the parade in an antique wicker Boardwalk Rolling Chair that dates back to 1923.
